This unit applies to individuals who are required to demonstrate understanding of a broad knowledge base, incorporating theoretical concepts with substantial depth in some areas. The application is in relation to those who work closely with other staff members throughout an organisation, and who may also have individual responsibility for the development and implementation of systems, or may be working in a specialist recordkeeping environment such as archives.
Generally, where no formal vocabulary controls exist in an organisation there is a form of controlled titling. This unit covers the formalisation of such informal schemes. Vocabulary control, or controlled language, is commonly called a 'thesaurus' in some sectors of the recordkeeping industry.
Where a new system of vocabulary controls is put in place, or amendments to current controls are introduced, many organisations may choose to implement training or development programs to assist users with implementation.
This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to develop new or modified vocabulary controls and classification schemes for business or records systems based on an organisation's functions and activities.
No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of endorsement.
