3 | Context of assessment | a
| Assessment of competency must comply with the assessment requirements of the relevant maritime regulations
|
b
| Assessment of this unit must be undertaken within relevant marine authority approved and audited arrangements by a registered training organisation:
|
| 1 | As a minimum, assessment of knowledge must be conducted through appropriate written/oral examinations, and
|
| 2
| Appropriate practical assessment must occur:
|
| | i
| at the registered training organisation; and/or
|
| | ii
| on an appropriate working or training vessel |
| |
4 | Specificresourcesrequired for assessment | Access is required to opportunities to:
|
a
| carry out a range of suitably simulated practical and knowledge assessments that demonstrate the skills and knowledge to launch and operate survival craft and equipment; and/or
|
b
| organise and conduct abandon vessel musters and drills in appropriate simulations of maritime conditions and assist in the launch and operate survival craft and equipment during emergency response simulations and drills on board an operational commercial or training vessel
|
| Note: Simulated first aid situations and assessments may require access to open and enclosed lifeboat fittings and equipment, on-load release gear training aid, open lifeboat and davit, lifeboat and rescue boat equipment, life-jackets and hard hats, davit-launched liferaft and davit, inflatable throw over liferaft, cradle and hydrostatic release, lifeboat/liferaft boarding ladders, foul weather gear, training pool with jumping platform or equivalent, immersion suits, a selection of shipboard lifesaving, alerting and detection equipment typically found on vessels.
|
| Assessments must be conducted in accordance with relevant OH&S requirements. Protective clothing must be worn in accordance with current maritime practices and Australian standards. At least one assessor must hold a current lifesaving qualification appropriate for in-water training and assessment exercises |
