Unit of Competency TLIB3027 - Set up and shut down on-train remote control system
Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to set up and shut down an ontrain remote control system in accordance with workplace procedures and the requirements of relevant safeworking regulations and codes of practice. It includes setting up the remote control system, setting up the lead control system, and shutting down the remote control equipment.People achieving competence in this unit will need to fulfil the applicable state/territory legislated rail safety requirements and to comply with relevant codes of practice and/or guidelines.Work is performed without supervision, generally within a team environment. It involves the application of routine operational principles and procedures when setting up and shutting down an ontrain remote control system, as part of workplace activities across a variety of operational contexts within the Australian rail system.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.

As a minimum, assessors must satisfy applicable regulatory requirements, which include requirements in the Standards for Registered Training Organisations current at the time of assessment.

As a minimum, assessment must satisfy applicable regulatory requirements, which include requirements in the Standards for Registered Training Organisations current at the time of assessment.

Assessment must occur in workplace operational situations or, where this is not available, in simulated workplace operational situations that replicate rail workplace conditions.

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.

Resources for assessment include:

a range of relevant exercises, case studies and/or simulations

relevant and appropriate materials, tools, equipment and personal protective equipment currently used in industry

applicable documentation including workplace procedures, regulations, codes of practice and operation manuals.
