Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit of competency describes the outcomes required to maintain energy efficient work practices and contribute to systems improvement with regard to energy efficiency. The unit applies to a wide range of roles across all industry sectors. 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.

The following resources must be made available:

policies and procedures relevant to energy efficiency

Competency is to be assessed in the workplace or a simulated environment that accurately reflects performance in a real workplace setting.

Assessor requirements

Assessors must:

hold the appropriate assessor competency standards as outlined in the regulations; and

be able to demonstrate vocational competencies at least to the level being assessed; and

be able to demonstrate how they are continuing to develop their VET knowledge and skills as well as maintaining their industry currency and assessor competence.
