Employability Skills | |||
Learning Outcomes and Application | This unit of competency covers the skills and knowledge required to control and coordinate the use of totally enclosed motor propelled survival craft (TEMPSC) to facilitate safe evacuation and recovery of personnel.This unit of competency applies to operators who are required to coordinate the evacuation/muster, boarding and launch of TEMPSC; operate, manoeuvre and navigate TEMPSC; operate communications and navigation systems and other safety/rescue equipment; and monitor and respond to hazards and other problems.This unit of competency applies to offshore installations and facilities where evacuation procedures involve the use of water craft and survival at sea. Offshore facilities include:offshore rig or platformfloating facility (e.g. floating storage and offloading (FSO), floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO), and floating liquefied natural gas (FLNG)).This unit of competency applies to an individual working alone or as part of a team or group and working in liaison with other shift team members and the control room operator, as appropriate.Certain maritime licences may be required, such as a ‘coxswain’s ticket’. Check local regulations for details.No other 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. Assessment for this unit of competency will be in a simulated environment. Simulation should be based on survival craft and launching systems relevant to the particular facility/installation and will include walk-throughs of the relevant competency components. Simulations may also include the use of case studies/scenarios, role plays and 3-D virtual reality interactive systems. The unit will be assessed in as holistic a manner as is practical and the judgement of competence based on a holistic assessment of the evidence. Assessment will occur over a range of situations which will include disruptions to normal and planned operations. Assessment may be integrated with the assessment of other relevant units of competency, for example: PMAWHS215 Apply offshore facility abandonment and sea survival procedures and practices. The collection of performance evidence: will use simulated situations must provide evidence of the ability to control a TEMPSC and to perform over the range of situations which might be expected to be encountered in evacuation and recovery situations must include the deployment of TEMPSC in a simulated environment. Off-the-job assessment must sufficiently reflect realistic operational workplace conditions that cover all aspects of workplace performance, including environment, task skills, task management skills, contingency management skills and job role environment skills. Knowledge evidence may be collected concurrently with performance evidence (provided a record is kept) or through an independent process, such as workbooks, written assessments or interviews (provided a record is kept). 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. The regulatory framework will be reflected in workplace policies and procedures and is not required to be independently assessed. Foundation skills are integral to competent performance of the unit and should not be assessed separately. Assessors must satisfy the assessor competency requirements that are in place at the time of the assessment as set by the VET regulator. In addition, the assessor or anyone acting in subject matter expert role in assessment must demonstrate both technical competency and currency. If the assessor cannot demonstrate technical competency and currency they must assess with a subject matter expert who does meet these requirements. Technical competence can be demonstrated through one or more of: relevant VET or other qualification/Statement of Attainment appropriate workplace experience undertaking the type of work being assessed under routine and non-routine conditions appropriate workplace experience supervising/evaluating the type of work being assessed under routine and non-routine conditions Currency can be demonstrated through one or more of: being currently employed undertaking the type of work being assessed being employed by the organisation undertaking the type of work being assessed and having maintained currency in accordance with that organisation’s policies and procedures having consulted/had contact with an organisation undertaking the type of work being assessed within the last twelve months, the consultation/contact being related to assessment conducting on-the-job training/assessments of the type of work being assessed being an active member of a relevant professional body and participating in activities relevant to the assessment of this type of work. |
