Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit of competency covers the skills and knowledge required to make an object from cloth (such as basic decorative items or clothing) following the requirements of an identified pattern. It may or may not require machinery and does not require complex sewing or finishing or the development of a pattern.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.The unit should be applied to a specific 'project' or task which has a defined beginning, middle and end, occurs over an extended period of time, and is relevant to the manufacturing industry.When delivered/assessed as part of a qualification the 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 should occur on the job or in a workplace simulated facility with relevant equipment, materials, work instructions and deadlines.

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.

Conditions for assessment must include access to all tools, equipment, materials and documentation required, including work instructions, specifications, hand and/or power tools, workplace records and a suitable work area.

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

be familiar with the current skills and knowledge used and have relevant, current experience in the manufacturing industry.
