Application

This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to use an authoring tool to produce discrete interactive sequences for websites. It involves planning the use of the authoring tool, preparing authoring software for authoring and producing interactive sequences according to project requirements.

The unit applies to those working collaboratively with technical assistance and under direction, who develop small components such as web pages or a sequence of screens, which are integrated into a larger project.

No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
