Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to develop integrated digital reception system applications, topologies, devices and capabilities, and system programming methods; as well as use diagnostic tools and documentation of developed systems.It applies to cablers who install emerging digital reception equipment and cabling systems for domestic and small to medium enterprise information technologies. 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.

Gather evidence to demonstrate consistent performance in conditions that are safe and replicate the workplace. Noise levels, production flow, interruptions and time variances should be typical of those experienced in the Telecommunications – Digital Reception Technology industry and include access to:

a typical contemporary dwelling into which a digital system will be developed

availability of all functional requirements of a modern home

access to contemporary digital equipment

access to all current standards, codes and regulations.

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