This unit describes the skills required to review and develop new surveillance flight route programs to ensure that these continue to meet operational requirements. It includes reviewing established flight routes, establishing new flight routes, deleting non-current routes, obtaining flight crew input into flight route review and development, and obtaining approvals for changes to flight routes.

This unit applies to those working in roles responsible for the development and review of flight surveillance routes.

The skills and knowledge described in this unit must be applied within the legislative, regulatory and policy environment in which they are carried out. Organisational policies and procedures must be consulted and adhered to.

Those undertaking this unit would work independently in consultation with others, performing complex tasks in a range of contexts.

No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to unit at the time of publication.

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

List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.

ELEMENTS	PERFORMANCE CRITERIA
Elements describe the essential outcomes	Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. Where bold italicised text is used, further information is detailed in the range of conditions section.
1. Review established flight routes	1.1 Check flight routes regularly against requirements. 1.2 Use risk management techniques in checking effectiveness of established flight routes. 1.3 Confirm suitability of flight routes. 1.4 Assess overall effectiveness of the route. 1.5 Identify and analyse changes/trends in effectiveness.
2. Establish new flight routes	2.1 Plan new routes based upon analysis of client need and the application of a risk identification and assessment. 2.2 Plan route for maximum effectiveness. 2.3 Validate the new route to assess effectiveness. 2.4 Change to new route based upon evaluation.
3. Delete non-current flight routes	3.1 Identify and assess flights as being ineffective. 3.2 Prepare proposal to delete the flight route. 3.3 Advise relevant personnel.
4. Obtain flight crew input into flight route review and development	4.1 Seek feedback on route plans from flight crew. 4.2 Consider flight crew input. 4.3 Provide feedback to flight crew.
5. Obtain approvals for changes to flight routes	5.1 Submit proposed changes to flight routes to relevant personnel for approval.

Evidence required to demonstrate competence must satisfy all of the requirements of the elements and performance criteria. If not otherwise specified the candidate must demonstrate evidence of performance of the following on at least one occasion.

establishing, evaluating and changing flight routes in line with risk management principles

planning and evaluating in the context of surveillance flight route development

using technology and equipment

communicating and liaising with diverse audiences

Evidence required to demonstrate competence must satisfy all of the requirements of the elements and performance criteria. If not otherwise specified the depth of knowledge demonstrated must be appropriate to the job context of the candidate.

enabling and allied legislation

policy, procedures, guidelines, protocols and standard operating procedures

organisational and jurisdictional values/ethics and codes of conduct

risk assessment

flight route planning

aircraft capability

relevant technology and equipment

client requirements

workplace and industry environment

(add new lines for each of the assessment tasks)

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.

Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
