Employability Skills Summary

Employability Skill	Industry/enterprise requirements for this qualification include:
Communication	Understanding work and organisational instructions Seeking guidance and describing clearly faults, problems and spares requirements Negotiating with team members regarding timing and progress of work activities Understanding and interpreting procedures, instructions and maintenance publications Completing maintenance documentation and component tags Reading drawings relating to maintenance activities Using computers to obtain maintenance data and complete documentation Networking with other team members regarding work planning and execution
Teamwork	Performing tasks as an individual while being responsive to supervisors and allowing for relevant human factors Working effectively with supervisors, qualified persons providing guidance and other team members who may be of different ages, gender, race, religion and political persuasion Working effectively as a member of a team and gaining the trust and support of other team members
Problem solving	With qualified person guidance identifying problems and developing practical solutions to maintenance problems not fully covered by maintenance data Proposing solutions to problems as modifications or a amendments to specified maintenance processes Responding to emergencies or accidents in accordance with regulatory and organisational requirements Using mathematical techniques to obtain and apply dimensional and tolerance data and to convert values between systems of measurement
Initiative and enterprise	Adapting to new situations that arise as a consequence of revised maintenance data, practices and procedures Varying work practices and behaviour as a result of performance feedback during competency development and job performance Evaluating under guidance ideas that may result in modifications or changes to work processes Applying human factors to avoid maintenance errors and maintain quality standards and adapting competencies to the performance of a range of maintenance tasks Contributing to a process of continuous improvement and a willingness to support and participate in the effective introduction of new work practices
Planning and organising	Clarifying task objectives and required outcomes with supervisors and with qualified persons providing guidance
Self-management	Accepting responsibility for managing individual workload to meet target completion times or fit in with team milestones Actively seeking opportunities to develop competencies and to apply them across a range of tasks and monitoring performance using indicators such as the extent of guidance required and the level of supervision exercised by supervisors Identifying career paths beyond Certificate II, especially with regard to on-aircraft as an aircraft maintenance engineer or component repair and overhaul in workshops
Learning	Taking advantage of learning opportunities that arise through expansion of the range of tasks and through organisational continuation training Adapting competencies to accommodate new ideas and techniques Using feedback from qualified persons and supervisors to identify ways in which competence can be improved
Technology	Maintaining components and component parts that are within the scope of competencies and selecting applicable tools and equipment Storing and caring for components, component parts, tools and support equipment Using test equipment that is within the scope of competencies held Amending print-based maintenance publications Using computers and microfiche to obtain maintenance data and using computers to complete documentation
