Foundation Skills

This section describes language, literacy, numeracy and employment skills incorporated in the performance criteria that are required for competent performance.

Skill	Performance Criteria	Description
Reading	1.1, 2.1, 3.1, 3.2	Recognises and interprets industry and government guidelines and organisational policy to determine job requirements
Oral Communication	1.4, 2.1	Elicits information and client business needs by using listening and questioning techniques
Navigate the world of work	2.1	Complies with explicit organisational policies and procedures
Get the work done	1.2-1.4, 2.1, 2.3, 2.4, 3.1-3.3, 4.1-4.6, 5.1-5.4	Determines job priorities, resources and equipment, and works logically and systematically to undertake clearly defined and familiar tasks Takes responsibility for routine decision making by selecting from a range of predetermined options in routine situations, identifying and taking some situational factors into account Initiates standard procedures when adapting configuration procedures, depending on differing operational contingencies, risk situations and environments Understands key principles and concepts underpinning the design and operation of digital systems and tools, and applies these when troubleshooting existing technology and when seeking to understand the potential impact of new technology In familiar contexts, responds promptly and intuitively to problems involving virtualised machine environments requiring immediate attention

Assessment requirements

Modification History

Release	Comments
Release 1	This version first released with ICT Information and Communications Technology Training Package Version 1.0.

Performance Evidence

Evidence of the ability to:

apply sustainability practices related to current information and communications technology (ICT) network design
research, identify and develop a virtual machine environment
implement and maintain a virtual machine environment.

Note: If a specific volume or frequency is not stated, then evidence must be provided at least once.

Knowledge Evidence

To complete the unit requirements safely and effectively, the individual must:

summarise the current government and industry policies and guidelines related to developing sustainable ICT environments
identify and describe current technologies and processes designed to produce a sustainable ICT environment
state the available tools and software applications required to manage virtual machines
define the structure, function and business organisation of client
outline the configuration of software applications required to manage virtual machines
describe the configuration requirements required to integrate virtual machines into an existing network design.

Assessment Conditions

Gather evidence to demonstrate consistent performance in conditions that are safe and replicate the workplace. Noise levels, production flow, interruptions and time variances must be typical of those experienced in the network industry, and include access to:

a site or prototype where virtual machine environments may be implemented
network technical requirements
software tools to support implementation of virtual machines.

Assessors must satisfy NVR/AQTF assessor requirements.
