Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to design interactive 3-D applications for scientific and mathematical modelling.It applies to individuals with object-oriented programming skills working in any industrial context that requires 3-D computer simulation of a well-defined environment, system or set of relationships.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 must be typical of those experienced in the game development field of work, and include access to:

suitable 3-D equipment, software and hardware

technical manuals

examples of scientific or mathematical models.

Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.
