Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit describes the performance outcomes required to clean a heavy vehicle body and its major components before beginning repairs. It involves preparing for the task, cleaning the vehicle body and components by mechanical or chemical means, and completing workplace processes and documentation.It applies to those undertaking a Vocational Education and Training in Schools (VETiS) or pre-vocational qualification as preparation to entering the automotive service and repair or automotive manufacturing industry. The unit is designed for use in a highly supervised context and is not suitable for use in a vocational qualification.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 or third-party observation of tasks.

Where assessment of competency includes third-party observation, individuals must provide evidence that links them to the heavy vehicles or components that they have cleaned before repair, e.g. repair orders.

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

workplace instructions

manufacturer cleaning material specifications

heavy vehicle systems and components specified in the performance evidence requiring pre-repair cleaning

cleaning equipment, cleaning agents, materials and tools appropriate for pre-repair cleaning.
