Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit of competency describes the skills required to inspect asset condition, to plan for asset repairs and to monitor and report on maintenance and repair work completion. The ability to identify faults, gather data, interpret technical information, assess risks and produce technical work plans and reports are essential to performance.This unit applies to those working as field staff with responsibility for ensuring that water collection, distribution, storage and transfer assets are regularly monitored and for conducting scheduled maintenance and repair work on assets.The skills and knowledge described in this unit must be applied within the legislative, regulatory and policy environment in which they are carried out. Organisational policies and procedures must be consulted and adhered to. Those undertaking this unit would work under indirect supervision, in a familiar context, while performing routine tasks ensuring minimum damage to the environment. No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to unit at the time of publication.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

Competency should be assessed in an actual workplace or in a simulated environment, with access to equipment and infrastructure appropriate to the outcome. Competency should be demonstrated over time to ensure the candidate is assessed across a variety of situations.

Assessors must satisfy the NVR/AQTF mandatory competency requirements for assessors.
