Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit describes the performance outcomes required to repair vehicle misalignment. It involves preparing for the task, selecting and using specialist tools and equipment, setting up vehicle body measuring equipment, taking measurements, identifying and repairing vehicle body misalignment to pre-paint condition, and completing workplace processes and documentation.It applies to those working in the automotive body 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 vehicle misalignments 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

PPE required to repair vehicle body misalignment

OEM or authorised agency repair procedures

vehicle specifications

welding equipment

measuring system

straightening equipment

two misaligned vehicle body sections as specified in the performance evidence

tools, equipment and materials appropriate for repairing vehicle misalignment.
