The range statement relates to the unit of competency as a whole. It allows for different work environments and situations that may affect performance. Bold italicised wording, if used in the performance criteria, is detailed below. Essential operating conditions that may be present with training and assessment (depending on the work situation, needs of the candidate, accessibility of the item, and local industry and regional contexts) may also be included. |
Context | This unit of competency includes the processes required to form materials into specified shapes, including cutting, bending, fixing, welding and finishing to component |
Work requirements | Work requirements may be determined from:job/shop ordersplans/specificationsproceduresother means |
