Schedule laboratory work for a small team

Assessment tool

Version 1.0
Issue Date: May 2024


This unit of competency describes the skills and knowledge to schedule laboratory work for a small team to meet operational requirements. It covers the ability to identify resource requirements and then document, monitor and adjust schedules in response to operational variations and in consultation with relevant personnel.

This unit applies to technical officers and laboratory technicians who have responsibility for the work outputs of a small work team in all industry sectors.

No licensing or certification requirements exist at the time of publication. However, regulations and/or external accreditation requirements for laboratory operations exist, so local requirements should be checked. Relevant legislation, industry standards and codes of practice within Australia must also be applied.

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