Issue Date: May 2024
This unit supports the attainment of skills and knowledge required for competent workplace performance in councils of all sizes. Knowledge of the legislation and regulations within which councils must operate is essential. The unique nature of councils, as a tier of government directed by elected members and reflecting the needs of local communities, must be appropriately reflected.
This unit covers the knowledge and skills required to systematically identify crime prevention needs and formulate a range of potential options that may act as a basis for the development of crime prevention initiatives within community groups and geographic areas. Criminal activity, local contexts and perceptions of crime generate the potential for many needs in relation to crime prevention.
