Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to identify potential risks that could damage or destroy a collection of materials, and develop plans and take actions to eliminate or at least mitigate such risks.It applies to individuals working in organisations holding significant collections. These include indoor and outdoor sites at museums, libraries, archives, galleries, cultural centres and organisations with records and information.In large organisations, this role may be undertaken by specialist staff. However in many community-based organisations, generalists, often working with limited supervision such as managers, volunteers or committee members, may be responsible for the development of disaster management plans.No licensing, legislative 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.

Assessment must be conducted in a safe environment where evidence gathered demonstrates consistent performance of typical activities experienced in the Library – Preventive Conservation field of work and include access to:

a collection, cultural material or site for which a disaster management plan can be prepared

historical data and collection records

special purpose tools, equipment and materials.

Assessors of this unit must satisfy the requirements for assessors in applicable vocational education and training legislation, frameworks and/or standards.

analyse risk assessment processes in relation to collections

analyse procedures used to reduce or remove risk in the relevant work context

identify support networks that can be used in the event of disaster response and recovery

analyse significance assessment methodology.
