Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit describes the performance outcomes required to perform competition vehicle preparations at a motor sport event. It involves preparing for the task, interpreting category and event team specifications, finalising technical preparations, conducting pre-race checks and post-race maintenance, and preparing a vehicle for scrutineering.It applies to those working in the motor sport industry.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 the competition vehicles that they have prepared, e.g. work order.

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 motor sport events

controlling body rules, category rules and supplementary regulations for the motor sport event

personal and motor sport team safety procedures and requirements, including PPE

two different motor sport competition vehicles

tools, equipment and materials appropriate for preparing competition vehicles at a motor sport event.
