Provide support to project building designers

Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: April 2024


This unit of competency specifies the outcomes required to provide a range of support to project building designers.

It covers attending and supporting client and stakeholder meetings, undertaking site visits, using industry-approved software, and liaising with relevant authorities on behalf of the architect or building designer responsible for the overall project design.

The unit supports drafters who assist and work under the supervision and instruction of architects or building designers and engage in a range of consultation processes as part of the building design process.

Licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to building design drafting in some states. Relevant state and territory regulatory authorities should be consulted to confirm those requirements.

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