Qualification Description

The PMC20116 Certificate II in Manufactured Mineral Products covers the skills and knowledge required to perform a range of process operations within the manufactured mineral products industries.

The qualification is suitable to prepare new employees and to develop existing workers to perform an operational role to directly produce product.

The operator will be able to operate production equipment within defined specifications and procedures and carry out a range of support functions. The operator will be able to apply technical and procedural knowledge to a defined range of situations and activities.

The operator will be able to solve predictable problems by applying known solutions and will report non-routine problems to appropriate personnel.

The qualification provides the skills and knowledge relevant to the following sectors:

cement

precast concrete products

premixed concrete

clay products

ceramic products

float (flat) glass

glass containers

refractories

plaster (both fibrous plaster and plaster boards)

fibre cement boards and other products

ground minerals

abrasive grinding wheels and cutting discs.

For job roles at Certificate I level see MSM10116 Certificate I in Process Manufacturing.

For people who do not directly produce product but work in production support roles see MSM20116 Certificate II in Process Manufacturing.

For people who require a more generalist qualification covering the application of good manufacturing practice and lean principles see MSS20316 Certificate II in Competitive Systems and Practices.

The PMC20116 Certificate II in Manufactured Mineral Products contains units of competency that can be credited towards other manufacturing qualifications such as:

PMC30116 Certificate III in Manufactured Mineral Products
