Employability Skills | |||
Learning Outcomes and Application | This unit of competency covers the skills and knowledge required to recognise the different types of technical textiles and non-woven materials, including component fibres and yarns. The unit includes underpinning knowledge on the difference between a woven or knitted technical textile and a non-woven textile.The unit of competency applies to production of technical textiles and non-woven textiles, generally known in industry as non-wovens. The unit covers the recognition of textiles manufactured using natural or synthetic fibres or yarns. The recognition techniques do not require laboratory skills. The fibres forming the technical or non-woven textile may be a staple or continuous filament. Technical textiles covered by this unit are textiles used for engineering, safety, agricultural, medical, and other specialised non-apparel furnishing and floor covering applications. Non-woven textiles covered by this unit may be made by mechanically, chemically or thermally interlocking layers or networks of fibres or filaments.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 using basic recognition techniques to identify technical and non-woven textiles, 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. |
