Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to develop, implement and evaluate maintenance schedules for an aquatic recreation facility.This unit applies to those working autonomously at aquatic leisure centres or community pools in roles such as program coordinators, swim school coordinators, recreation coordinators or duty managers. Work is performed according to relevant legislation, organisational policies and procedures.No occupational licensing, certification or specific legislative 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.

Skills must be demonstrated in:

a workplace or simulated aquatic facility or environment.

Assessment must ensure use of:

equipment and plant for which the candidate plans maintenance procedures

organisational policies, procedures and budget

equipment operating and maintenance instructions

resources to maintain facility and equipment.

Assessment activities that allow the individual to:

implement and monitor maintenance activity over time.

Assessors must satisfy the Standards for Registered Training Organisations’ requirements for assessors.
