Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit describes the performance outcomes required to repair radiators. It involves preparing for the task, cleaning, inspecting, repairing and performing post-repair testing on radiators, and completing workplace processes and documentation.It applies to those working in the automotive service and repair industry. The radiators include those in vehicles from all sectors of the 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 radiators that they have repaired, 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 repair workplace or simulated workplace

workplace instructions

three different radiators made of the materials specified in the performance evidence and requiring repair

tools, equipment and materials appropriate for repairing radiators.
