SKILL 

DESCRIPTION 

Numeracy

• Uses numerical information to interpret results, evaluate different types of technical data, take measurements and determine cost-effective outcomes

Reading

• Organises, evaluates and interprets complex technical documentation, such as software and hardware manuals and design specifications

Writing

• Prepares workplace documentation including reports and recommendations incorporating technical language to communicate complex information clearly and effectively

Planning and organising

• Uses a combination of formal, logical planning processes and an understanding of context for complex, high-impact activities with strategic implications
• Uses formal analytical and lateral thinking techniques for identifying issues, and developing and evaluating procedures for network solutions

Technology

• Demonstrates a sophisticated understanding of principles, concepts, language and practices associated with the digital world and uses this to devise solutions
