Application
This unit describes the skills and knowledge needed to identify employability skill demands in nationally recognised training products, and in related workplace, learning and assessment context tasks and texts. It involves comparing those identified demands with the employability skills of vocational learners and candidates and providing integrated employability skill support to address the gaps.
The unit applies to vocational education and training (VET) teachers, trainers and assessors who use a range of technical and training competencies to integrate awareness of employability skill requirements into the training and assessment. The employability skills are described by current authorised Australian foundation skill frameworks. They include skills such as initiative and enterprise, planning and organising, problem solving, self-management, and teamwork.
This unit does not include the competencies used by experienced VET teachers, trainers and assessors to lead the development of employability skill support.
No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
