Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to plan logistics distribution operations in a deployed context in support of operations, in accordance with relevant organisational policy and procedures. The application of this unit includes developing distribution support plans to deliver supplies and transport to sustain an organisation. While distribution planning is conducted on its own, it is also conducted alongside other logistics planners in a cooperative environment where planners share information and work together to produce a cohesive and integrated logistics support plan.This unit is applicable to logistics personnel responsible for planning and coordinating logistics support at an organisational level.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.
