Qualification Description

This qualification reflects the role of individuals who apply solutions to a defined range of unpredictable problems, and analyse and evaluate information from a variety of sources. They use well-developed skills and a broad knowledge base in music performance, music creation and composition, sound production, or music business contexts. They may provide leadership and guidance to others and have limited responsibility for the output of others.

The job roles that relate to this qualification may include singer/songwriter, music marketing and promotions officer, sound recordist, sound technician, booking agent (music) and musician.

Licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification considerations

National Standard for Licensing Persons Performing High Risk Work

The National Standard for Licensing Persons Performing High Risk Work applies to persons performing dogging and rigging work. Completion of the following units is required for certification at either basic, intermediate or advanced levels:

  • CPCCLDG3001 Licence to perform dogging
  • CPCCLRG3001 Licence to perform rigging basic level
  • CPCCLRG3002 Licence to perform rigging intermediate level
  • CPCCLRG4001 Licence to perform rigging advanced level.

National Code of Practice for Induction for Construction Work

Sets and staging for some performances or events may fall within the definition of construction work. If so, people entering the construction site are required to complete the general induction training program specified by the National Code of Practice for Induction Training for Construction Work (Australian Safety Compensation Council, May 2007). Achievement of the unit CPCCWHS1001 Prepare to work safely in the construction industry from the CPC Construction, Plumbing and Services Training Package fulfils this requirement.

Units of competency in qualification

Some individual units of competency may have their own licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements. Users must check individual units of competency for licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements relevant to that unit.
