Evidence should include the ability to:  
ꢁ
ꢁ
ꢁ
obtain pre-arrival information from ships following standard operating procedures  
provide shore information to ship according to standard operating procedures  
confirm pilotage arrangements with pilot authority and ship, when required,

(2)  
Method of Assessment  
Assessors should gather a range of evidence that is valid, sufficient, current and  
authentic. Evidence can be gathered through a variety of ways including direct  
observation, supervisor’s reports, portfolio, oral and written questioning. Questioning  
techniques should not require language, literacy and numeracy skills beyond those  
required in this unit of competency. The candidate must have access to all tools,  
equipment, materials and documentation required. The candidate must be permitted to  
refer to any relevant regulations, workplace procedures, product and manufacturing  
specifications, codes, standards, manuals and reference materials.  
(3)  
Context of Assessment  
This unit may be assessed on the job, off the job or a combination of both on and off the  
job. Where assessment occurs off the job, that is the candidate is not in productive work,  
then an appropriate simulation must be used where the range of conditions reflects  
realistic workplace situations. The competencies covered by this unit would be  
demonstrated by an individual working alone or as part of a team. The assessment  
environment should not disadvantage the candidate.

Context of Assessment  
This unit may be assessed on the job, off the job or a combination of both on and off the  
job. Where assessment occurs off the job, that is the candidate is not in productive work,  
then an appropriate simulation must be used where the range of conditions reflects  
realistic workplace situations. The competencies covered by this unit would be  
demonstrated by an individual working alone or as part of a team. The assessment  
environment should not disadvantage the candidate.
