Description

This qualification covers the skills and knowledge designed to reflect the role of a supervisor or assistant manager in a recreational vehicle retail outlet.

Job roles /employment outcomes 

The Certificate IV in Recreational Vehicle and Accessories Retailing has been developed as a post-trade level qualification for use in MSA07 Manufacturing Training Package. This qualification has been developed in response to an industry request. People with this qualification would be expected to lead sales teams and provide supervision of people in the sale of recreational vehicles and accessories, including:

  • motor homes
  • caravans
  • camper trailers
  • slide-ons
  • fifth wheelers

to meet Australian requirements, such as road worthiness and the Australian Design Rule (ADR). They will provide technical leadership as well as undertake some tasks themselves.

They may work in a service and repair facility or a manufacturer's factory undertaking sales work. Sales may be for a new recreational vehicle, a second-hand/refurbished recreational vehicle or spare parts and accessories. In some cases selling of the recreational vehicle may also include possible modifications which could be made to the recreational vehicle.

Application 

The sector typically manufactures, services and repairs recreational vehicles as required. Recreational vehicle sales requires specialised knowledge not only of the available range of recreational vehicle models and accessories but of the legal requirements associated with weight, towing and vehicle capacity.

Recreational vehicles may be made from a frame (timber, aluminium or steel) and skin (aluminium or fibre composite) or a manufactured wall panel or some other technology. They are typically mounted on a steel chassis which may be manufactured by the recreational vehicle manufacturer or bought. Fittings are typically timber/particle board but may be any other suitable material.

People with this qualification may be expected to:

  • sell a new or second-hand recreational vehicle
  • suggest modifications/refits to a recreational vehicle
  • prepare a recreational vehicle for sale/resale
  • sell spare parts and accessories
  • manage a sales area/showroom.

This work will generally be undertaken in a workshop or showroom environment.

Training programs for this qualification are suitable to be undertaken as part of a formal training contract with an employer under an Australian Traineeship or Apprenticeship arrangement.
