Learning Outcomes and Application This unit of competency covers the skills and knowledge required to work within an Indigenous cultural framework.The unit of competency applies to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students who wish to produce culturally-specific textile products and identify business opportunities. It applies to key cultural practices and processes used for the design and development of textile works, garments and accessories.The unit of competency should be customised according to the customs and protocols of the relevant communities. Work should accommodate the image use and design protocols and techniques specific to an Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander community.Work may be conducted in small to large scale enterprises and may involve individual and team activities.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.

Assessors must:

satisfy the assessor competency requirements that are in place at the time of the assessment, as set by the VET regulator

have vocational competency in Indigenous cultural knowledge, at least to the level being assessed, with relevant industry knowledge and experience.

Assessment should occur in operational workplace situations. Where this is not possible, or where personal safety or environmental damage are limiting factors, assessment must occur in a sufficiently rigorous simulated environment reflecting realistic operational workplace conditions. This must cover all aspects of workplace performance, including environment, task skills, task management skills, contingency management skills and job role environment skills.

Assessment processes and techniques must be appropriate to the language, literacy and numeracy requirements of the work being performed and the needs of the candidate.

Conditions for assessment must include access to all tools, equipment, materials and documentation required, including relevant workplace procedures, product and manufacturing specifications associated with this unit.
