Standard 1
Training Packages consist of the following:
1. NSSC endorsed components:
– units of competency;
– assessment requirements (associated with
each unit of competency);
– qualifications; and
– credit arrangements.
2. One or more quality assured companion
volumes.
Implications of Standard 1
New templates for
– qualifications
– units of competency;
– assessment requirements
Even if we wanted to keep everything the same, the template
causes some changes to be made
Advice about the content of Companion Volumes will be sought after
we have draft 2 developed.
