You are a newly appointed technical assistant at a large chemical
plant, Chemcalequip.
In order to complete your induction period and progress within the
company you have to review and evaluate your performance of the
Vocational Scenario or procedures and techniques that you have been involved in using so
Context far (titration, colorimetry, calorimetry and chromatography.) You
need to identify the key practical and personal competencies you
have shown whilst developing and using these skills. You must
evaluate your own performance, interpersonal skills and professional
practice. The report you produce will be assessed by a senior
technician.
Task 1 Draw on feedback from peers and teachers and industry to
analyse and evaluate the strengths and weaknesses in your
performance and skills in relation to your potential for future
progression.
Produce a report summarising and evaluating your performance and
skill development across all the practical work in this unit including
drawing on examples of skills developed in colorimetry,
titration, calorimetry and chromatography in this unit and
how they can be transferred for use in other units.

Introduction
In this assignment, I will evaluate our comprehensive report and technical competencies for this
unit. I will assess my performance in titration, cooling curves, and chromatography, identifying
areas for improvement to enhance result accuracy. I will seek feedback from my peers regarding
my practical experiment skills, communication, techniques, and calibration procedures. I will
examine the mistakes made and explore strategies to rectify them for future units and
experiments. This assessment will serve as an overview of Unit 2, covering my skills, techniques,
errors, and outcomes.
