Learning Outcomes and Application This unit of competency covers the knowledge and skills needed to apply effective work practices in an industry. It includes planning, organising and completing work, communicating effectively, working with others, solving problems and adapting to change.This unit applies to learners seeking practical skills that are relevant and useful to the area in which the learner hopes to gain employment, is currently working, and/or as a pathway to further study.This unit applies to a learning and assessment environment where access to normal production operations is not available. Typically this will be a VET in Schools delivery environment but it may be another simulated or trial manufacturing environment where a high degree of supervision exists. Students may be on work placement.This unit has application in qualifications for all occupations in the manufacturing industry and it should be regarded as an integrating unit. When delivered/assessed as part of a qualification, this unit must be customised to ensure its relevance to real or simulated work activities and related workplaces.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.

Assessment must occur in a simulated environment or a workplace.

This unit must always be assessed in holistically in conjunction with other units of competency that form part of a specified job function. Foundation skills are integral to competent performance of the unit and should not be assessed separately.

Performance must be demonstrated consistently over a period of time and for a range of manufacturing contexts.

Assessors must:

as a minimum, satisfy the Standards for Registered Training Organisations 2015 assessor requirements

have vocational competency in the manufacturing industry at least to the level being assessed, with broad industry knowledge and experience, usually combined with a relevant industry qualification
