Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to review energy use, and develop objectives, strategies and action plans for improved energy management in an organisation. It includes implementation and permanent monitoring as well as consultation and collaboration with key stakeholders throughout the process.This unit applies to operational and technical specialists, managers or similar who combine detailed knowledge of energy management with critical thinking, communication, and planning and organisational skills to develop and implement plans for improved energy management. Energy management responsibilities may be part of a broader work role or a primary job role. In some cases, the individual may work as an external advisor.No licensing or certification requirements exist at the time of publication. Relevant legislation, industry standards and codes of practice within Australia must be applied.

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.
