Employability Skills | |||
Learning Outcomes and Application | This unit of competency covers the skills and knowledge required to use physical and/or chemical measuring equipment to make or take routine measurements and keep records related to the measurements. This unit of competency applies to an individual working alone or as part of a team/work group and working in liaison with other shift team members and the control room operator, as appropriate.This unit of competency applies to all routine measurements within manufacturing and similar environments. 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. The unit should be assessed holistically and the judgement of competence shall be based on a holistic assessment of the evidence. The collection of performance evidence: should occur over a range of situations which include typical disruptions to normal, smooth operations must include the use of appropriate tools, equipment and safety gear requiring demonstration of preparation, operation, completion and responding to problems may use industry-based simulation for all or part of the unit particularly where safety, lack of opportunity or significant cost is an issue. Assessment should occur in operational workplace situations. Where this is not possible, or where personal safety or environmental damage are limiting factors, assessment must occur in a sufficiently rigorous simulated environment reflecting realistic operational workplace conditions. This must cover all aspects of workplace performance, including environment, task skills, task management skills, contingency management skills and job role environment skills. Assessment in a simulated environment should use evidence collected from one or more of: walk-throughs pilot plant operation demonstration of skills industry-based case studies/scenarios ‘what ifs’. Knowledge evidence may be collected concurrently with performance evidence (provided a record is kept) or through an independent process, such as workbooks, written assessments or interviews (provided a record is kept). Assessment processes and techniques must be appropriate to the language, literacy and numeracy requirements of the work being performed and the needs of the candidate. Conditions for assessment must include access to all tools, equipment, materials and documentation required, including relevant workplace procedures, product and manufacturing specifications associated with this unit. Foundation skills are integral to competent performance of the unit and should not be assessed separately. As a minimum, assessors must satisfy the Standards for Registered Training Organisations 2015 assessor requirements. |
