Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: April 2024


This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to apply and monitor aviation workplace security procedures, in compliance with relevant regulatory requirements of the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) and national operating standards.

This includes checking and monitoring personnel and goods entering a worksite, carrying out surveillance of work areas, dealing and writing reports on security incidents/emergencies, and completing required documentation.

This unit addresses aviation non-technical skill requirements (mental, social and personal-management abilities) related to aviation security duties of aviation personnel, and contributes to safe and effective performance in complex aviation operational environments.

Operations are conducted as part of recreational, commercial and military aircraft activities across a variety of operational contexts within the Australian aviation industry.

Work is performed independently or under limited supervision as a single operator or within a team environment.

Licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements are applicable to this unit.

Use for Defence Aviation is to be in accordance with relevant Defence Orders, Instructions, Publications and Regulations.

You may want to include more information here about the target group and the purpose of the assessments (eg formative, summative, recognition)
