Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit describes the performance outcomes required to carry out basic repairs to vehicle plastic components. It involves planning and preparing for the task, identifying types of automotive plastic components, selecting and using tools and equipment, welding plastic components, and maintaining the work area, tools and equipment.It applies to those undertaking a Vocational Education and Training in Schools (VETiS) or pre-vocational qualification as preparation to entering the automotive service and repair or automotive manufacturing industry. The unit is designed for use in a highly supervised context and is not suitable for use in a vocational qualification.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.

Where assessment of competency includes third-party evidence, individuals must provide evidence that links them to the plastic components 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

PPE for repairing vehicle plastic components

two different vehicle plastic components requiring repair

tools, equipment and materials appropriate for repairing vehicle plastic components.
