Employability Skills
Employability Skills are part of a unit of competency.
Employability Skills statements from a selection of units of competency from the DEF51312 Diploma of Explosive Ordnance Manufacture have been reproduced in the table below.
This table provides an example of Employability Skills for the qualification because Employability Skills within a qualification will vary depending on the qualification packaging options.
Defence qualifications have core units (which must be achieved) and elective units (where there is a choice of units which must be achieved) so different Employability Skills Summaries are possible within the one qualification, depending on the package of core units and chosen elective units.
Employability Skill | Employability Skills Statement |
Communication | adjust and document recommendations if required communicate with others conduct interviews liaise with client/customer prepare and present investigation reports prepare letters and reports to a level required present reports in a format that ensures the client can readily understand the determined options and solutions provide evidence to inquiries/courts as required record outcomes of the analysis and provide recommendations relevant to safety, legislative and statutory requirements |
Teamwork | apply principles of teamwork, and team aims and objectives apply techniques for supporting others/team members encourage other team members facilitate a team participate in a team understand composition of teams, and roles and responsibility of team members |
Problem solving | apply analytical and evaluation processes apply formulae to determine the net explosive quantity and compatibility for the facility assess fire situation and determine appropriate course of action demonstrate application of knowledge of explosive ordnance to assist in work and to guide problem solving prepare options and solutions in matters concerning the performance of explosive ordnance provide and evaluate options select appropriate solutions |
