Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to install IoT (Internet of Things) devices and networks, including connecting, programming and testing the networks and devices for functionality against a given performance objective.It applies to those in roles including software developers, programmers or network engineers, working as embedded systems engineers, IoT developers or senior software developers, and who have basic knowledge of electrical engineering.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

Skills in this unit must be demonstrated in a workplace or simulated environment where the conditions are typical of those in a working environment in this industry.

This includes access to:

tools, equipment, materials, hardware required to install land test an IoT network to devices

industry standard software packages relevant to installing IoT devices and networks

organisational, technical and manufacturer procedures and documentation.

Assessors of this unit must satisfy the requirements for assessors in applicable vocational education and training legislation, frameworks and/or standards.

Evidence Required

List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.

The candidate must demonstrate the ability to complete the tasks outlined in the elements, performance criteria and foundation skills of this unit, including evidence of the ability to:

connect at least three IoT devices to an IoT network.

In the course of the above, the candidate must:

check and test environmental factors affecting connectivity of devices.

The candidate must be able to demonstrate knowledge to complete the tasks outlined in the elements, performance criteria and foundation skills of this unit, including knowledge of:

functions and features of industry standard network and platforms that support IoT devices and components

language uses required for installing IoT devices and networks

functions and uses industry standard hardware and software tools relating to installing IoT devices and networks

different environmental impacts and contexts relating to where and how IoT devices are used

IoT security considerations and their impact

testing and debugging methodologies and techniques required to test software, hardware and environmental impacts.


Submission Requirements

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

(add new lines for each of the assessment tasks)


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.
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.
