Practical Demonstration Checklist

In this learner guide we have provided background material to cover the following competencies:

        LMFFL3302A: Install commercial vinyl floor coverings

        LMFFL3303A: Install resilient floor coverings using custom designs and decorative finishes

Your trainer will ask you to keep a log book or diary of the work you do on-the-job that relates to either or both of these competencies. This will help them to determine when you will have had sufficient hands-on practice in the tasks to undertake the assessment events.

When you're ready to be assessed, your assessor will watch you carrying out a range of practical demonstrations. The checklists below set out the sorts of things the assessor will be looking for when you undertake these practical tasks.
