Overview of assessment |
A person who demonstrates competency in this unit must be able plan and organise work activities involving more than one person in the case of single and multiple tasks while allowing for human factors and observing all relevant OHS procedures. |
Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit |
The relationship between broader planning and organising requirements and service specific procedures must be clearly linked. Evidence of underlying knowledge and skills associated with the general application of planning and organising while allowing for relevant human factors and OHS requirements is required to supplement evidence of ability to integrate these processes in conjunction with other personnel in the workplace. A person cannot be assessed as competent until it can be demonstrated to the satisfaction of the workplace assessor that the relevant elements of the Unit of Competency are being achieved under routine supervision on single and multiple tasks involving more than one person. This shall be established via the records in the Log of Industrial Experience and Achievement or, where appropriate, an equivalent industry . |
Context of and specific resources for assessment |
Competency should be assessed in the work environment, or by use of simulated activities, covering planning and organising situations applicable in the aircraft maintenance environment. This unit must be related in its assessment and application to all other units, particularly those that apply to the actual maintenance of aircraft. |
