Prospective learners must meet the following:
– Prospective learners must be at least 18 years of age at the time of enrolment.
– Applicants under 18 years of age are not eligible to enrol in Highlands Training Solutions courses.
– Prospective learners must possess basic digital skills and have access to a computer, tablet or smartphone with internet access to complete the online learning and knowledge assessment. Prior to commencing training, Highlands Training Solutions will undertake a Language, Literacy, Numeracy and Digital (LLND) skills review to determine whether the course is suitable for the prospective learner and to identify any reasonable support that may assist successful participation.
– Prospective learners must have sufficient language, literacy, numeracy and digital skills to access the online learning, read and interpret first aid information, complete assessment activities and communicate effectively in simulated emergency situations. Where the LLND skills review identifies that additional support may be required, Highlands Training Solutions will discuss reasonable support strategies with the learner, provided these do not compromise the requirements of the training product. If, following the review, Highlands Training Solutions determines that the learner is unlikely to successfully complete the course, even with reasonable support, the learner will be advised before enrolment proceeds.
The assessment in support of the unit of competency requires the learner to complete a written knowledge assessment and each candidate to demonstrate skills in an environment that provides realistic in-depth, scenarios and simulations to assess candidates’ skills and knowledge.
The learner must answer all the written knowledge questions correctly. There is the opportunity for this knowledge assessment to be conducted verbally if the learner requires this level of support.
The practical assessment is conducted under controlled conditions in a classroom. Evidence of the ability to complete tasks outlined in elements and performance criteria of this unit in the context of the workplace or community setting.
