Unit of Competency TLIX5037 - Plan logistics support for deployed operations
Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to plan logistics support for deployed elements of an organisation in support of organisational operations in accordance with relevant organisational policy and procedures. This unit of competency is applicable to logistics personnel who have a responsibility to organise the delivery of logistics support in a deployed context. This person will typically plan logistics support for relatively simple operations. This type of operation would enable planning to be completed by an individual as opposed to a significant operation where planning is usually completed by a team of professionals and operational control is at the highest level of the organisation.This role requires management and leadership skills. Logistics support may be comprised of a range of capabilities from different disciplines including road transport, supply, maintenance, catering or health. 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 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

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.
