Learning Outcomes and Application | This unit describes the performance outcomes required to prepare and weld components using the gas metal arc welding (GMAW) process. It involves preparing for the task, selecting and using GMAW equipment and personal protective equipment (PPE), setting gas flow pressures and welder settings, inspecting and testing weld quality, and completing workplace processes and documentation.It applies to those working in the automotive 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 basic GMAW they have carried out on components, e.g. work 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 for GMAW, including approved welding helmet GMAW welder steel sections requiring GMAW as specified in the performance evidence tools, equipment and materials appropriate for carrying out basic GMAW. |
