Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit describes the performance outcomes required to install marine engines, controls and instruments. It involves preparing for the task, installing and testing the operation of marine engines, controls and instruments, and completing workplace processes and documentation.It applies to those working in the marine service and repair 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 engines, controls and instruments that they have installed in vessels, 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:

marine repair workplace or simulated workplace

workplace instructions

manufacturer engine, controls and instrument specifications

three different vessels requiring installation of engines, controls and instruments

tools, equipment and materials appropriate for installing marine engines, controls and instruments.
