  8. Rules of evidence • Validity – the critical aspects of evidence in the unit • Sufficiency – is the evidence provided adequate to cover all aspects of the unit? • Currency – is the evidence current enough? • Authenticity – are references authentic?

  10. Activity instructions • Work in small groups (approx 4-5 people) Select kit with preferred unit of competency • Read through profile of candidate and skim unit requirements • Discuss cards which indicate evidence against the unit • Complete grid – does the evidence on the card partially/completelyaddress the unit? What other questions would you have about the evidence?
