Foreword

This Purchasing Guide has been generated to enable the stakeholders in the Water Industry in Western Australia to participate in the managed implementation of the National PUA00 Public Safety Training Package Version 8. Information within this Guide should provide guidance on how competency standards may be selected and applied to achieve suitable outcomes and qualifications, for and within an industry. PUA00 Public Safety Training Package Version 8 was released by the National Training Information System (NTIS) on the 23 December 2010.


Introduction This Guide provides information that will facilitate the implementation of the PUA00 Public Safety Training Package Version 8 in Western Australia. This Guide is designed to aid Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) to convert from the previous version of the Training Package within the scope of their training delivery. The Guide should be read in conjunction with the endorsed components of the Water Industry Training Package NWP07. The Guide provides information on:

Transition arrangements

Advice on Employability Skills

Funding

A mapping of current publicly funded qualifications to the revised Training Package qualifications

An allocation of nominal hours to units of competency and total hours for qualifications

A set of appropriate sample, or model, training programs at each AQF level

Transition Arrangements

Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) are required to deliver Training Package qualifications within 12 months of the release date of the Training Package on to the National Training Information System (NTIS). A current accredited course, however, may be used until its accreditation expires. A RTO with the scope of registration authorising delivery of existing accredited courses in a defined industry area will be deemed to have the resources and facilities to deliver the new qualification/s in that industry area. An Amendment to Scope will be necessary where the industry area is not within scope. The Training Accreditation Council (TAC) will need to be advised of any new qualifications from the Training Package being delivered. Transition to New Qualifications Students currently enrolled in a Training Package qualification in the PUA00 Public Safety Training Package Version 8 should be permitted to complete the program they enrolled in initially, unless the move to the related qualification from the revised Training Package can be made without disadvantage to a student.

Funding Some learners may only achieve a Statement of Attainment during their enrolment period with the RTO. Separate funding is not provided to assess the learner who has left his/her studies and then, at a later date, wants to complete an integrated assessment to achieve a certificate qualification. The RTO will be required to make special arrangements to issue the final qualification. This process may involve an invitation to the employer (if applicable) to participate in the assessment in the workplace.

Nominal Duration of Qualifications

The maximum nominal hours are identified for each Training Package qualification. Nominal hours may vary within a qualification depending on the units of competency selected and the delivery strategies used; however, training delivery will not be funded beyond the maximum nominal hours indicated. Nominal hours are for structured training only and include both delivery and assessment. Definition of nominal hours Nominal hours are the hours of training nationally required to achieve the outcomes of the Unit of Competency. In Western Australia, nominal hours are used as a mechanism for funding allocation.


Employability Skills What are the employability skills? Employability skills are non-technical skills and competencies which have always been an important part of an individual’s effective and successful participation in the workplace. Their explicit inclusion in Training Packages represents the progression of competency based training into a system which develops the full range of transferable skills, attitudes and behaviour required for successful participation in the workplace. Employability skills have been developed from a business and industry need for a broader range of skills beyond the Mayer Key Competencies that were developed in 1992. The 2002 report, Employability Skills for the Future, published by the Business Council of Australia and the Australian Chamber of Commerce and Industry, outlined an ‘Employability Skills Framework’ which identifies eight employability skills. They are:

communication skills, which contribute to productive and harmonious relations between employees and customers

teamwork skills, which contribute to productive working relationships and outcomes

problem-solving skills, which contribute to productive outcomes

initiative and enterprise skills, which contribute to innovative outcomes

planning and organising skills, which contribute to long-term and short-term strategic planning

self-management skills, which contribute to employee satisfaction and growth

learning skills, which contribute to ongoing improvement and expansion in employee and company operations and outcomes

technology skills, which contribute to effective execution of tasks. The Employability Skills Framework The Employability Skills Framework details the employability skills and the elements, or facets, of those skills that employers identified as important. Facets are examples of skills and behaviour which contribute to the overall application of each particular employability skill. The nature, emphasis and context of these facets vary across industries.


Employability skills and Training Packages The National Quality Council endorsed the approach to explicitly embed the applicable employability skills into each individual unit of competency. In 2005 and 2006 specifically developed tools were used by Industry Skills Councils to review and embed employability skills into Training Package qualifications. In many cases the skills and knowledge identified by the Employability Skills Framework already existed in Training Packages. Industry Skills Councils reviewed each Training Package and, where gaps existed or changes were required, modified the competency standards. For some Training Packages, the Framework was further modified to capture industry specific requirements. These requirements were then mapped to existing Training Packages and embedded and strengthened in units of competency. Employability skills are said to be explicitly embedded when units of competency are written in a manner which makes the relationships between employability skills and the other performance requirements clear and readily identifiable. Employability skills summary Once the units of competency in a qualification have been mapped against the Framework, an Employability Skills Summary is created for every qualification in a Training Package. Summaries broadly identify the application of each employability skill in the context of the job role(s) covered by the qualification. They are designed to assist in identifying and including relevant industry applications of the employability skills into learning and assessment strategies. Reporting employability skills The National Quality Council Working Group on Employability Skills has agreed to a draft model for reporting employability skills. The draft model is yet to be presented to the National Quality Council for endorsement. The Working Group recommends that:

employability skills summaries will be available for downloading from a central internet repository http://employabilityskills.training.com.au/

a brief statement with a URL to a user-friendly repository of employability skills summaries, from where the relevant summary can be downloaded to be printed on each qualification

learners use the URL to download the relevant employability skills summary for their qualification

RTOs will include generic text and the URL on all qualification testamurs.
