Issue Date: June 2024
This unit of competency supports the full range of access consulting services. The application of disability awareness is fundamental to working as an access consultant. This unit of competency will support all aspects of the work of access consultants.
This unit specifies the competency required to apply the knowledge of disability to the implementation of the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) Premises Standard and relevant state and territory anti-discrimination legislation. Access consultants must understand the impact of environment on disability and the impact of disability on the environment. Access consultants must implement these skills and knowledge in all aspects of their work.
The unit requires the ability to work sensitively in relation to disability issues and to display appropriate attitudes when planning and implementing work that impacts on people with disabilities.
