Unit of Competency MSTFP3003 - Assemble shoe by hand
Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit of competency covers the skills and knowledge required to assemble shoes by hand.The unit of competency applies to the assembly of shoes using mainly hand processes, working largely independently and being accountable for own results, including planning, carrying out assigned tasks, coordinating processes, and setting and working to deadlines. It covers the assembly of components according to specifications but does not include the preparation of components, such as cutting, lasting, and making sole or heel. If these skills are required, then appropriate units should also be selected.It involves the use of operations involving operator dexterity and accuracy in regard to the positioning and guiding of work.Work is most likely to be conducted in a small business situation on custom-made shoes, however, it may also be conducted in medium 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 assembling shoes by hand, 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.
