Issue Date: May 2024
This unit is designed for use in a pre-employment skills introduction program and is suitable for use in institutional based vocational programs. Skills development will take place under direct supervision.
This unit is not to be used in a traineeship or apprenticeship training program or associated qualifications. It is only to be used in pre-employment programs and carries no credit towards apprenticeship/trade and other qualification types in manufacturing and engineering.
This unit should be integrated with the skills development undertaken through other units in this qualification.
This unit of competency is intended to provide the learner with the opportunity to plan and undertake an engineering project which can be completed in an institutional environment.
Included in this unit is the opportunity to use a basic computer-aided drafting (CAD) system to produce engineering type drawings. The drawings produced have to be fit for purpose but do not necessarily need to conform to drawing standard, such as AS 1100.101-1992 Technical drawing - General principles.
This unit is also intended to provide the learner with the opportunity to incorporate the skills available in other units to produce a functional engineering product in an institutional environment. Skills such as welding and machining do not need to be pre-developed but can be developed in an integrated way as required throughout the project progress.
