Learning Outcomes and Application | This unit of competency describes the skills and knowledge required to develop a plant pest survey strategy to determine the presence, distribution and prevalence of a pest.Pests may be weeds, vertebrate or invertebrate pests or a combination of these.The work may be conducted as part of an emergency response to an incursion or as part of routine surveillance, and must be conducted in accordance with established standards and protocols.This unit applies to individuals who have been appointed or engaged to undertake a role within a pest incursion response. They may also be involved with planning responses to emergency animal diseases and aquatic animal diseases.This unit applies to individuals who take personal responsibility and exercise autonomy in undertaking complex work. They are accountable for the work of others within broad parameters and analyse information and exercise judgement to complete a range of advanced skilled activities.No occupational licensing, legislative or certification requirements are known to apply to this unit at the time of publication. However, all units of competency dealing with animals in the AHC Training Package have the requirements for animals to be handled humanely to minimise stress and discomfort. | ||
