DESCRIPTION 

Learning

• Uses a mix of intuitive and formal processes to identify key information and issues, evaluate alternative strategies, anticipate consequences and consider implementation issues and contingencies
• Monitors outcomes of decisions, considering results from a range of perspectives and identifying key concepts and principles that may be adaptable to future situations

Numeracy

• Interprets numerical data and undertakes measurements to evaluate performance and interoperability of network

Reading

• Interprets complex technical information to determine hardware requirements

Writing

• Develops a broad range of material including plans, maps and other documentation for a specific audience, using clear and detailed language to convey explicit information, requirements and recommendations

Planning and organising

• Demonstrates knowledge of own legal rights and responsibilities and considers implications of these when planning and undertaking work

Problem solving

• Demonstrates a sophisticated knowledge of principles, concepts, language and practices associated with the digital world and uses these to troubleshoot and understand the uses and potential of new technology

Self-management

• Demonstrates an acute awareness of the importance of knowledge, monitoring and controlling access to digitally stored and transmitted information

Technology

• Uses a broad range of strategies to store, access and organise virtual information, recognising that design choices will influence what information is retrieved and how it may be interpreted and used
• Uses nuanced knowledge of context to adapt configuration procedures to requirements of network, troubleshoot and debug WLAN issues and modify work depending on operational contingencies, risk situations and environments
