Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit describes the performance outcomes required to inspect motor sport competition vehicles and safety equipment for compliance with applicable rules and regulations. It involves preparing for the task, confirming driver eligibility for the event, confirming that clothing, competition vehicle and equipment are compliant, and completing workplace processes and documentation. The unit requires sufficient mechanical knowledge and skills to use testing and measuring equipment to check mechanical and safety specifications and to ensure they meet eligibility and safety criteria for the particular event category.It applies to those working in the motor sport industry as scrutineers at a motor sport event.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 inspected compliance of motor sport drivers, vehicles and equipment with motor sport event rules and regulations, e.g.event sign-on sheet.

Assessors must verify performance evidence through questioning on skills and knowledge to ensure correct interpretation and application.

The following resources must be made available:

two different motor sport events

motor sport event scrutineering documentation, including rules and regulations, safety procedures and event procedures

two different motor sport competition vehicles requiring scrutineering

equipment and materials appropriate for motor sport event scrutineering, including PPE and testing equipment.
