Application
This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to make a pro-active and positive contribution to workplace innovation.
It applies to individuals working in any industry or community context, in both small and large organisations who take a pro-active approach to identifying, suggesting and developing ideas about better ways of doing things at a practical operational level in a specific area of activity. While the individual’s overall work is undertaken with some supervision and guidance, they apply discretion, judgement and effective interpersonal skills in order to contribute to workplace innovation.
No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
