Learning Outcomes and Application | This unit describes the skills required to catch aquatic animals in a survival situation. This includes preparing improvised fishing resources and conducting fishing operations. The individual is not expected to be an expert fisherperson but rather to have sufficient skills and knowledge to obtain, where possible, a measure of sustenance from waterways to increase their chances of survival.This unit was developed for Defence personnel but may be relevant to others.The skills and knowledge described in this unit must be applied within the legislative, regulatory and policy environment in which they are carried out. Organisational policies and procedures must be consulted and adhered to.Those undertaking this unit would act autonomously, while performing concrete tasks, in a broad range of contexts which may be highly unpredictable.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to unit at the time of publication. | ||
Duration and Setting | X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting. Competency should be demonstrated over time in a range of fishing activities that could be expected in a survival situation. Competency must be assessed in a simulated workplace environment with access to a suitable assessment area, fish hooks (maximum of five) and fishing line (maximum of five metres). Consideration must be given to holistic assessment with other survival units. While a person can demonstrate the ability to catch aquatic animals, doing so in a survival situation is crucial. Assessment under simulated survival conditions includes: food restrictions absence of normal living conditions and amenities significant period of time Refer to advice in the companion volumes. Assessors must satisfy the NVR/AQTF mandatory competency requirements for assessors. |
