Unit of Competency TLIF0079 - Select a safe vehicle
Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to select a motor vehicle for safety, in accordance with motor vehicle standards, safe working and regulatory requirements. It includes identifying types of motor vehicle applicable to first time drivers, recognising safety features of vehicles and how these safety features are affected by road and environmental conditions. Work is performed under supervision, generally within a team environmentNo 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 where it is appropriate to do so; where this is not appropriate, assessment must occur in simulated workplace operational situations that replicate 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

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

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

Driving a vehicle is not part of the assessment of this unit of competency.

Simulators are not suitable for final assessment of this unit of competency.
