Assessment Task: Coordinate food production processes

Information for students

AtomImportant assessment information Two assessment options have been provided for this unit of competency. Do not complete both options! Read through each option and work with your assessor to select the one that best suits your circumstances.

Option 1: Training kitchen based

Select Option 1 or Option 2. Do not complete both.

This unit of competency requires that you supervise food production processes and monitor quality for a minimum of 12 service periods.

If the majority of your cooking is completed in a simulated industry environment (for example, the training kitchen attached to your RTO) or if you do not have the opportunity to work in a supervisory role in your workplace, it is likely that your assessor will suggest that you complete your assessment using Option 1.

or

Option 2: Workplace based

Select Option 1 or Option 2. Do not complete both.

If the majority of your cooking is completed in a commercial kitchen in your workplace and you have the opportunity to coordinate cooking operations (including overseeing others), then workplace-based assessment may be suitable for you.

You should speak to your assessor to confirm that your role is suitable for workplace-based assessment before selecting Option 2.

Assessment Task: Option 1 – Training kitchen based

Complete the following activities.

AtomSuccessful completion of this unit requires that you demonstrate your skills and knowledge in an operational commercial kitchen during 12 service periods. It is important that you provide evidence that you completed each service period. We have provided you with a Student Logbook to help you. You will need to understand what a ‘service period’ is to ensure that you fulfil your requirements. If you are still unsure, speak to your assessor before you get started.
What is a service period? The SIT, Tourism, Travel and Hospitality Training Package tells us that, for the purpose of assessment, service periods do not necessarily align with shift periods worked. For example, a service period in a hospitality environment such as a restaurant may be a breakfast service, lunch service or dinner service. A shift worked in a restaurant may incorporate one or more of these service periods. So, you may work a shift that incorporates a breakfast service and a lunch service and although this is one ‘shift’ worked, it may be used for two service periods. However, the two service periods must be clearly defined and the start/set-up and finish/close of each service period must be clearly identified.

 
This unit will be assessed side by side with other units from your course. Assessment will take place in the training kitchen attached to your RTO. To ensure that each member of your group has the opportunity to supervise 12 service periods, your assessor will allocate you into small teams and assign a team leader for each time that you cook. This is so you will know when you are being assessed for this unit. An Assessment schedule template has been provided in your Student Logbook to help you keep track of your assessment for this unit. Below is a guide to the skills and knowledge you must demonstrate when you are assigned as the team leader for a service period. We have provided a number of documents to assist you and you will find these in your Student Logbook. What do I need to demonstrate? During your 12 service periods, you will be required to demonstrate a range of the skills and knowledge that you have developed during your course. These include: During the 12 service periods, you must have: How will I provide evidence? In your Student Logbook, you will find some detailed information about providing evidence, the preparation and planning documents you must complete for each service period, a logbook summary and a reflective journal. At the completion of each service period you will need to: Your assessor will also observe some of your service periods and complete an observation checklist. Tips for completing your Student Logbook Most importantly, ask for help if you are having trouble!
