Qualification	-	Unit of Competency	AURAFA001 - Use numbers in an automotive workplace
Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application	This unit describes the performance outcomes required to make basic mathematical measurements and calculations relating to vehicle inspection, service and repairs. It includes undertaking calculations to inform parts and labour quotations and the completion of other automotive workplace documentation.It applies to those required to apply entry-level proficiency in numerically orientated problem-solving skills.No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements 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. Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements. Competency is to be assessed in the workplace or a simulated environment that accurately reflects performance in a real workplace setting. Assessment must include direct observation of tasks. Where assessment of competency includes third-party evidence, individuals must provide evidence that links them to having used numbers in the automotive workplace, e.g. repair orders showing parts, time worked and work done. Assessors must verify performance evidence through questioning on skills and knowledge to ensure correct interpretation and application. The following resources must be made available: automotive workplace or simulated workplace written automotive text and service information and documentation, such as workshop service manuals, vehicle repair information, stock records, job cards, repair quotations, time sheets, and supply quotations equipment appropriate for undertaking measurements and calculations, such as calculators or computers.
