TLI40710 Certificate IV in Transport and Logistics (Rail Infrastructure) (continued)

Units can be packaged together to meet the specific supervisory, leadership and advanced technical needs of occupations while also providing options for multi-skilling. (Note that this may include basic units needed in an occupation which may also be packaged in a lower level occupation.)

Importantly, the flexibility of packaging with the qualification framework must be considered within the responsibility of individuals, enterprises and/or registered training organisations to package units to meet the legislative requirements and/or industry codes of practice necessary at the occupational levels.

Units are discrete from each other; however units may be clustered and delivered and/or assessed concurrently and/or holistically.
