This unit of competency describes the skills and knowledge required to set up, operate, adjust and shut down a liquid manufacturing process in a pharmaceutical manufacturing facility.

The unit applies to individuals who apply Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) and operating principles to the liquid manufacturing process. Individuals work under broad direction and take responsibility for their own work.

No occupational licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.

You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)

This section specifies different work environments and conditions that may affect performance. Essential operating conditions that may be present (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) are included.

Pre-start checks must include:

carrying out required area or line clearances inspecting equipment condition to identify signs of wear confirming all safety equipment is in place and operational confirming that equipment is clean or sanitised confirming that equipment is correctly configured for processing requirements

Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
