Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to select, install and test power management software in network elements.It applies to individuals who usually operate with a degree of autonomy, but may also supervise the work of others in the information and communications technology (ICT) industry.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 telecommunications – sustainability field of work and include access to:

a site on which energy saving solutions can be implemented

power saving hardware currently used in industry

relevant documentation, feasibility studies, equipment manuals and other site-related documentation.

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