Description

This qualification reflects the role of persons who are responsible for organising their own work, leading others, and planning for and carrying out tasks of complex and non-routine functions. Work responsibilities include the administration, event management and operations areas of racing.

The candidate is required to solve unpredictable problems by analysing and evaluating information, and to demonstrate broad knowledge in a variety of contexts. The ability to communicate with racing participants across a wide range of socio-economic and cultural groups is an important aspect of this role.

While they may not be required to handle horses or greyhounds, employees with this qualification are often required to work close to race animals. For their own safety, the safety of others and the safety of animals, employees must be aware of potential risks and hazards associated with animal behaviour.
