Unit of Competency AHCMOM311 - Operate precision control technology
Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit of competency describes the skills and knowledge required to operate precision technology used in the control of specialised machinery and equipment. This unit is used to optimise specialised machinery performance.All work must be carried out to comply with workplace procedures, work health and safety requirements manufacturer’s specifications and sustainability practices.This unit applies to individuals who work under broad direction and take responsibility for their own work and use discretion and judgement in the selection and use of available resources.No occupational licensing, legislative or certification requirements are known to apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

Competency is to be assessed in the workplace or simulated environment that accurately reflects performance in a real workplace setting. All evidence collected must meet minimum requirements including industry standard timeframes for performance of tasks.

Assessors must satisfy current standards for RTOs.
