Elements and Performance Criteria

Elements 

Elements describe the essential outcomes.

Performance Criteria 

Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. Where bold and italicised text is used, further information is detailed in the range of conditions section.

1. Prepare for non-structural panel repairs

1.1 Job requirements are determined from workplace instructions

1.2 Workplace procedures and product manufacturer and original equipment manufacturer (OEM) specifications are sourced and interpreted

1.3 Hazards associated with the work are identified and risks are managed

1.4 Equipment and hand and power tools are selected and checked for serviceability

1.5 Work is planned to minimise waste according to workplace procedures

2. Carry out non-structural panel repairs to pre-paint condition

2.1 Panels are repaired using approved repair methods, materials and equipment according to OEM specifications and safety and environmental requirements 

2.2 Repairs are finished to pre-paint condition according to workplace procedures

2.3 Advice is sought from appropriate personnel if repair interferes with the vehicle’s trim or electrical and mechanical systems

3. Complete work processes

3.1 Final inspection is made to ensure work meets workplace expectations and panel is presented ready for painting

3.2 Work area is cleaned, waste and non-recyclable materials are disposed of, and recyclable material is collected and stored

3.3 Tools and equipment are checked, reported if faulty, and stored according to workplace procedures

3.4 Workplace documentation is processed according to workplace procedures

Release 1 

New unit of competency.

Performance Evidence

Before competency can be determined, individuals must demonstrate they can perform the following according to the standard defined in this unit’s elements, performance criteria, range of conditions and foundation skills:

  • carry out non-structural vehicle panel repairs on three different vehicles.

Knowledge Evidence

Individuals must be able to demonstrate knowledge of:

  • work health and safety (WHS) and occupational health and safety (OHS) requirements relating to carrying out non-structural vehicle panel repairs, including procedures for:
  • selecting and using personal protective equipment (PPE)
  • manually handling vehicle panels
  • using tools and equipment
  • environmental requirements, including procedures for trapping, storing and disposing of waste materials
  • panel repair methods and techniques, including:
  • panel repair tools, equipment and materials
  • panel beating techniques
  • body filler types and recommended applications
  • abrasive grades and types
  • body filler finishing procedures
  • repair quality requirements to pre-paint condition
  • procedures for final inspection of completed non-structural panel repairs.

Assessment Conditions

Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.

Competency is to be assessed in the workplace or a simulated environment that accurately reflects performance in a real workplace setting.

Assessment must include direct observation of tasks.

Where assessment of competency includes third-party evidence, individuals must provide evidence that links them to the non-structural panel repairs that they have carried out, e.g. repair orders.

Assessors must verify performance evidence through questioning on skills and knowledge to ensure correct interpretation and application.

The following resources must be made available:

  • automotive repair workplace or simulated workplace
  • workplace instructions
  • original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and component supplier repair specifications
  • PPE to carry out non-structural vehicle panel repairs
  • three different vehicles with non-structural damage requiring repair
  • body filler
  • tools, equipment and materials appropriate for carrying out non-structural panel repairs.
