Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to set up and optimise a glass forming process. It applies to forming of glass as typically used in production of flat glass, glass containers and glass fibre products.This unit applies to experienced operators, leading hands, supervisors or those in similar roles who are required to perform shutdown and isolation procedures, prepare and set up equipment, perform changeovers, make adjustments to optimise process, remedy faults or non-conformity and solve problems within area of responsibility. This unit applies to an experienced operator demonstrating broad theoretical and technical knowledge and well-developed skills in situations that require some discretion and judgement. The experienced operator may work alone or as part of a team or group and in liaison with other shift team members, team leader and supervisor. No licensing or certification requirements exist at the time of publication. Relevant legislation, industry standards and codes of practice within Australia must be applied.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

Assessment Tasks

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.
Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
