This unit of competency has been developed for engineering tradesperson - mechanical apprenticeship training and the recognition of trade-level skills in marking off/out in general engineering.

Marking off/out is undertaken using appropriate tools and equipment and templates are produced as required. Marking off/out techniques may apply to a range of materials and shapes.

Skills covered by this unit are generally applied in occupational and work situations associated with trade-level fitting, machining and toolmaking work.

Where the task involves a simple transfer of a dimension or marking a location point associated with general engineering and maintenance functions, select one or more of the following units as appropriate:

MEM07005 Perform general machining

MEM18006 Perform precision fitting of engineering components

MEM18014 Manufacture press tools and gauges.

Where the manufacture of marked out components is required, appropriate units should also be selected.

Where a higher level of calculation is required unit MEM12026 Perform advanced trade calculations in a manufacturing, engineering or related environment should also be selected.

Where a higher level of measurement is required unit MEM12003 Perform precision mechanical measurement should also be selected.

Where a higher level of precision work is required unit MEM18003 Use tools for precision work should also be selected.

Where marking out structural fabrications and shapes is required unit MEM12007 Mark off/out structural fabrications and shapes should also be selected.

Where the selection and use of tools is required unit MEM18001 Use hand tools and unit MEM18002 Use power tools/hand held operations, should also be selected as appropriate.

No 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)

List each assessment task's title, type (eg project, observation/demonstration, essay, assingnment, checklist) and due date here

Assessment task 1: [title]      Due date:

(add new lines for each of the assessment tasks)

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.

This field allows for 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.
Tools and equipment include one (1) or more of the following:	marking out tables surface tables rotary tables dividing heads vee blocks cylinder squares sine bars vernier height gauges protractors straight edge and set squares hammers scribers centre punch marking medium

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.
