Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit of competency specifies the outcomes required to use appropriate software program functions and features to produce drawings for spatial tasks. The unit covers determining task requirements, including analysing task or design specifications and client needs, and setting up hardware and software applications. It requires the ability to use software functions and features to prepare digital and paper computer-aided spatial drawings, and to test and validate the integrity of drawings.The unit supports those who work in technical support positions in a surveying and spatial information services team, and take some responsibility for liaising with clients or end users to meet task requirements.No licensing, legislative, regulatory, or certification requirements apply to this unit of competency at the time of endorsement.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

The following must be present and available to learners during assessment activities:

equipment:

personal computer, including appropriate drawing software and software appropriate for accessing and storing spatial data

hardware, including printer, plotter and multimedia devices and peripherals

specifications:

task and design specifications

organisational policies and procedures relating to:

work health and safety

data privacy and information copyright

physical conditions:

access to equipped work station

relationships with team members and supervisor:

working in a team

relationships with client:

client consultation required.

Timeframe:

as specified by task and client requirements.

Assessor requirements

As a minimum, assessors must satisfy the assessor requirements in the Standards for Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) current at the time of assessment.
