3. TERMS YOU SHOULD KNOW

Competencean accepted level of ability in performing specific tasks.

Competency-Based Training focuses on outcomes – that someone is competent at the task given.

Host Organisation an employer who assesses the student for the on-the-job competencies.

National Competencies level agreed to by industry as the minimum required for workplace functionality.

Nationally Recognised Training accredited training which is recognised across Australia.

Off-the-job learningstructured training away from the workplace in an approved training institution (such as a high school or RTO).

On-the-job traininginstruction by a workplace trainer in an actual workplace.

Performance Criteriastatements of performance expected of a student as a result of training. They include knowledge and skills and the application of these. Performance Criteria help workplace trainers and teachers to judge the student’s attainment of the industry competencies.

RTORegistered Training Organisation - accredited body that is authorised to issue the certificates, after formal assessment has taken place. Each school has an arrangement with an RTO to offer VET courses.

Vocational Education on and off-the-job component of accredited nationally recognised training delivered in schools and industry.

Vocational Placement structured and supervised component of vocational courses, undertaken on–the-job.

This skills assessment record offers opportunity for the endorsement of skills demonstrated by the student.

It is not expected that all sections will be completed, as not all workplaces will offer the student the opportunity to demonstrate all listed skills.

4.COMPETENCY STANDARDS

4.1What Are The Competency Standards

Competency Standards are statements about the skills and knowledge that people need to perform their jobs to the required industry standards. They are nationally agreed benchmarks for effective performance in the industry.

The focus is on what can be done at each stage not on how long the training has taken.

4.2Are there any tips on using the standards?

Here are a few pointers to use to help you in using the standards:-

  • The standards are statements about what people need to be able to do in the workplace – they are not designed to cover the details of training that may be needed for people to acquire the skills.
  • The standards are written to be general enough to apply to the range of situations in the industry. Therefore you will see statement like ‘in accordance with enterprise procedure’ or ‘as appropriate to the work situation’. The standards provide a guide which can then be taken and tailored to meet the needs of specific sectors and business.

5.LOG BOOK

5.1What is a Log Book?

The Log Book provides a record of a student’s achievements and learning activities both off-the-job and in the workplace. It lists the knowledge and skills that a student must demonstrate before they can be assessed as competent at that task.

All assessment information will be recorded in your logbook. The host employer, VET teacher or western Futures Co-ordinator will assess the student as ‘competent’ or ‘not yet competent’. Being competent means being able to complete the task to the standard required.

5.2Who is responsible for what is in this Log Book?
