Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to examine concrete/masonry structures in accordance with safeworking and regulatory requirements, and workplace procedures. It includes obtaining all relevant previous reports, performing a detailed examination, initiating appropriate necessary actions and completing all required documentation.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 under minimal supervision, generally within a team environment.It involves the application of routine operational principles and procedures when conducting a detailed concrete/masonry structures examination, 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.

Practical assessment must occur in appropriate range of situations in the rail environment.
