Application

This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to operate the Rapid Roulette wheel, accept wagers and pay out winnings with a focus on specific game rules.

Those developing training to support this unit must consult the relevant state or territory gaming regulatory authority to determine accreditation arrangements for training organisations, courses and trainers and assessors.

The unit applies to dealers who work in licensed casinos. Dealers work with some supervision and guidance from others within predefined procedures and rules. The unit could also apply to casino personnel who supervise the operation of table games, such as the pit boss and pit manager.

In many states and territories, legislation stipulates that all gaming workers must receive training in the responsible conduct of gambling. This is covered in SITHGAM001 Provide responsible gambling services.

Under some state or territory legislation, personnel who conduct table games within a licensed casino must also hold an individual or occupational gaming licence and achieve competence in units that cover the conduct of the particular table games they operate. This is one of a suite of units that may have to be achieved to comply with their occupational licence.
