Research and analyse access solutions for the built environment
Assessment tool
Version 1.0
Issue Date: March 2024
This unit of competency supports access consultants in all aspects of their work and is central to providing advice to clients regarding the development of effective solutions in the built environment that support access.
This unit of competency specifies the outcomes required by access consultants to research and analyse a broad range of complex and highly specialised information that is required in order to provide effective advice and influence design solutions that provide lawful access and inclusive use of the built environment for all people, including those with disabilities. Maintaining the currency of information is fundamental to the role.
The unit covers the application of ergonomics and the human geometry of people with disabilities to access provision; the analysis of built environment issues with positive and negative impacts on people with mobility, sensory and cognitive impairments; and an in-depth understanding of the range of design solutions available and how they may be applied to the provision of access.
