Application
This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to write highly complex workplace texts which may be in printed or digital formats, such as position papers or reports, organisational plans, complex instructions, case analysis reports, contracts, web content or promotional material.
An individual performing these tasks works autonomously and accesses and evaluates support from a broad range of sources as needed.
This unit applies to individuals who use, or are preparing to use, writing skills to complete workplace activities. This includes existing workers and individuals preparing for employment through vocational education and training. This unit should be integrated and contextualised with vocational training to support achievement of vocational competency.
The unit is aligned to, but does not fully address, the Australian Core Skills Framework (ACSF) writing core skill indicators .05 and .06 at level 5 in the workplace and employment domain of communication.
No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
