| | 1.3 | Artwork to be installed is weighed and viewed to determine artistic and design characteristics and physical dimensions and shape |
| | 1.4 | Site for installation is visited and location, wall and ceiling composition, load bearing ability and method of construction fittings, attachments, hanging/fixing devices and any display features determined |
| | 1.5 | If necessary, a plan for installation is developed and necessary regulatory approvals for installation sought |
| | 1.6 | Customer approval of plan is gained |
2 | Prepare for installation | 2.1 | Specifications and/or plans are read and interpreted |
| | 2.2 | Attachments, fittings, hanging/fixing devices and display features are identified and ordered |
| | 2.3 | Tools, equipment and materials are selected and checked prior to use to ensure that they are appropriate for the work, serviceable and in a safe condition |
| | 2.4 | Artwork to be installed is prepared for safe and secure transit to worksite |
| | 2.5 | Sequence of work is planned |
3 | Install artwork | 3.1 | Instructions and sequence for installation are followed |

Interpret work order and locate and apply relevant information
Apply safe handling requirements for equipment, products and materials, including use of personal protective equipment
Identify materials used in the work process
Follow work instructions, operating procedures and inspection processes to:
minimise the risk of injury to self or others
prevent damage to goods, equipment and products
maintain required production output and product quality
Determine the requirements to securely fix artwork to be displayed for each installation
Install an item of artwork of up to 20 kg on brick, plaster sheet, lath and plaster walls
Install one (1) grouped set of artwork
Use mathematical ideas and techniques to correctly complete measurements, calculate area and estimate material requirements
Communicate ideas and information to enable confirmation of work requirements and specifications and the reporting of work outcomes and problems, interpret basic plans and follow safety procedures
Avoid backtracking, work flow interruptions or wastage
Work with others and in a team by recognising dependencies and using cooperative approaches to optimise work flow and productivity
Elements and principles of design
Types and features of framed artwork, the composition and characteristics of frames
The composition, load bearing ability and method of construction of walls and ceilings
Workplace safety system requirements related to the installation of artwork
Work flow in relation to the installation of artwork
Impact of this process on the artwork
Assessors must:
hold training and assessment competencies as determined by the National Skills Standards Council (NSSC) or its successors
have vocational competency in the furnishing industry at least to the level being assessed with broad industry knowledge and experience, usually combined with a relevant industry qualification
be familiar with the current skills and knowledge used and have relevant, current experience in the furnishing industry.
Assessment methods must confirm consistency of performance over time rather than a single assessment event and in a range of workplace relevant contexts.
Assessment must be by observation of relevant tasks with questioning on underpinning knowledge and, where applicable, multimedia evidence, supervisor’s reports, projects and work samples.
Assessment is to be conducted on single units of competency or in conjunction with other related units of competency. Foundation skills are integral to competent performance in the unit and should not be assessed separately.
Assessment must occur on the job or in a workplace simulated facility with relevant process, equipment, materials, work instructions and deadlines.
Access is required to framed artwork, attachments, fittings, hanging/fixing devices and display features, and an area suitable for installation.
