Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit describes the skills and knowledge to conduct an audit for the specific resource of transport and to develop recommendations to improve the sustainability of transport operations.This unit applies to organisations and their value chains that are seeking to determine their current and desirable future use of transport resources as part of a sustainable strategy. The transport audit may be conducted individually or as part of a team. The need for a transport audit may be the result of an organisation’s own decisions to increase the sustainability of its operations or be required for regulatory or other purposes. A manager or technical specialist who has a major responsibility for sustainability as part of a broader work role would typically undertake this, or sustainability may be their primary work responsibility.No licensing or certification requirements exist at the time of publication. Relevant legislation, industry standards and codes of practice within Australia must be applied.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

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.
