HAVE YOUR SAY ON THE RELEVANCE AND CONTENT OF THE UNITS OF COMPETENCY AND QUALIFICATIONS BEING DEVELOPED AS PART OF THE CIVIL CONSTRUCTION TRAINING PACKAGE – AQF 4, 5 & 6

  • The Civil Construction Training Package AQF 4, 5 & 6 Development Project covers the higher level technical, supervisory and management areas. 
  • Units of Competency and Qualifications are being developed for inclusion in the current Training Package – BCC03.
  • The project was commenced in January 2005 and will be completed by early February 2006. 
  •  A Project Steering Committee has been established to oversee the project.
  • To date 13 Review Workshops have been conducted to ensure industry consultation.  These workshops have been held in Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria and Western Australia.

Proposed Units of Competency
The proposed units of competency include the following:

  1. Imported Units - Units of competency in existing Training Packages that may be suitable for importing into BCC03 – these units of competency have been posted on the RIISC website for review and feedback from industry stakeholders.
  2. New units of competency - new units developed to cover areas not covered by existing units – these units are currently being drafted and are being progressively loaded on the website as they become available.

Proposed Qualifications and Skill Sets
Based on the proposed units of competency – both imported and new, Civil Construction qualifications have been proposed – these Qualifications have been posted on the RIISC website for review and feedback from industry stakeholders.

These qualifications will be revised to incorporate industry feedback and further industry consultation will occur during the validation workshops in October 2005.
