Employability Skills Summary

Employability Skills are part of a unit of competency.

Employability Skills statements from a selection of units of competency from the DEF42012 Certificate IV in Explosive Ordnance Proof and Experimental have been reproduced in the table below.

This table provides an example of Employability Skills for the qualification because Employability Skills within a qualification will vary depending on the qualification packaging options.

Defence qualifications have core units (which must be achieved) and elective units (where there is a choice of units which must be achieved) so different Employability Skills Summaries are possible within the one qualification, depending on the package of core units and chosen elective units.

Employability Skill	Employability Skills Statement
Communication	communicate with supervisors, suppliers, clients and subordinates identify and confirm requirement for explosive ordnance breakdown from work requests/instructions identify and report breaches in site safety liaise with supervisors, suppliers, clients and superiors as required obtain relevant authorisation before specialised and hazardous work is carried out prepare and provide relevant reports and documentation use verbal and non-verbal communication techniques including language, language style, active listening
Teamwork	apply team work principles and strategies control a number of work teams direct, brief, coordinate and monitor personnel encourage other team members participate in and facilitate teams understand composition of teams, and roles and responsibilities of team members use techniques for supporting others/team members
Problem solving	apply formulae to determine the net explosive quantity and compatibility for the facility demonstrate application of knowledge of explosive ordnance to assist in work and to guide problem solving identify and action the requirement for waivers undertake spatial measurement including length, width, perimeter and area use knowledge of service environments to assist in work and guide problem solving
Initiative and enterprise	initiate and monitor processes initiate any remedial action required
Planning and organising	ascertain availability and appropriateness of drawings, work procedures and associated documentation assess plant, equipment and tools for availability, function and serviceability identify and allocate resources required for the processes identify occupational health and safety policies addressing the processes and apply for the duration in all associated activities identify resource shortfall and measures, and initiate their sourcing inspect the facility and potential explosive site to be licensed and draw conclusions and recommendations from these activities monitor and coordinate the activities within and between processes plan and prepare for licensing plan the conduct of processes research and examine the required documentation
Selfmanagement	apply independent decision making apply personal behaviour that shows sensitivity to the differences between colleagues apply personal safety measures interpret environmental effects relevant to explosive ordnance meet work priorities
Learning	apply knowledge of general properties of explosive ordnance learn about explosive ordnance knowledge relevant to work understand design principles of explosive ordnance understand effects of explosive ordnance understand inter-operability of explosive ordnance understand safety, legislative and statutory requirements relevant to explosive ordnance
Technology	apply explosive ordnance knowledge relevant to work being performed maintain grenades understand characteristics, technical capabilities, effects and limitations of Australian Defence Force explosive ordnance understand technical capabilities and limitations of equipment used in the licensing process use appropriate information technology and software use equipment such as computers, digital cameras, laser range finders, global positioning systems use weapon system and platform integration

Packaging Rules

17 units of competency are required for this qualification including: 5 core units 12 elective units Choose a minimum of 10 elective units from the Group A (Specialisation) and Group B (General) lists below, of which 7 units must be from Group A. Choose the remaining 2 elective units from either the elective lists below, or elsewhere within this training package, or another endorsed training package, or accredited course. Where a pre-requisite unit is attached to an elective unit it is identified by this symbol ∟. The pre-requisite units attached to any of the elective units must be undertaken and are additional to the number of elective units required for the qualification. The elective units should be selected from the units that most closely align to an individual’s occupational outcomes. Electives selected must not duplicate outcomes of other units. Elective units selected must not duplicate content already covered by other units in this qualification.
