and materials set up and operate static machines carry out basic construction processes within
joinery/shopfitting/stairbuilding industries work effectively with others follow instructions in a designated sequence produce basic technical drawings use numeracy and perform calculations use principles of sustainability identify employment opportunities in the industries.
3. Development of the course3.1 Industry/enterprise/
community needs
Standards 1 and 2 for Accredited CoursesBackgroundThis course is being reaccredited under a project brief from Skills Victoria through the Curriculum Maintenance Manager for Building and Construction.Many of the skills needed in this sector require general and off-site construction occupations from entry level to management. Off-site construction refers to construction which takes place at a different location to the location of use, ie, in a manufacturing plant or factory specifically designed for this type of process – constructed items such as building modules, stairs etc, which are then transported to the site.Since initial accreditation, changes have taken place in the industry, such as emerging trends in the construction sector, including the use of technological advancements, increased productivity, new capital equipment, new materials and the application of sustainable and environmental practices.’

Section B: Course information
These advancements have affected a wide range of fields, from materials (concrete, metal precasting and alternative wood products), to management methods (subcontracting, prefabrication and project management) and innovations (robotics, computer aided design and electronically linked project management teams).Another major change has been the redevelopment of the qualifications framework and units of competency for the general construction sector of the construction industry, now known as the CPC08 Training Package. Previously, areas of industry that formed part of this sector were represented in the former BCG03 General Construction, and BCF00 Off-site Construction Training Packages covering occupations and functions such as: joinery (eg assembling or manufacturing joinery components) stairbuilding (eg assembling or installing stairs) shopfitting (eg setting out and assembling cabinets, showcases,
wall units etc) www.cpsisc.com.au/cpc08-test/CUG/ImpConstruction
Combined with the Victorian Skills Reform and the scope of the industry, the current course needs updating to accommodate the new skills and knowledge to properly inform vocational students on the opportunities and options within the industry. In addition, the current course is based on modules and this course now contains units of competency. This is demonstrated in Appendix 2: Transition arrangements, and the course structure is explained in the credit matrix Section 5.1.A focus group survey undertaken for this reaccreditation proposal considered the CPC10108 Certificate I in Construction, CPC20108 Certificate II in Construction and CPC20208 Certificate II in Construction Pathways, to help form the proposed course structure future pathways.Joiners, shopfitters and stairbuilders can apply their skills and knowledge in a variety of domestic and commercial applications and some may choose to further their studies by specialising in carpentry, shopfitting, cabinet making and/or stairbuilding.Industry The Skills Victoria project brief states that this ‘course aligns to
the Victorian Government's Securing Jobs for Your Future – Skills for Victoria strategy to meet the demands of users, both individuals and businesses. This proposed course aligns to the objective of skills creation, where courses are offered to people who wish to prepare for entry to work in a particular industry, in this case, joiners, shopfitters, and stairbuilders.’
Mr Wilhelm Harnisch, the Chief Executive Officer of Master Builders Australia said, ‘The building industry has a substantial structural skills shortage which will become very evident once the economic recovery gathers a head of steam and which will add to substantial labour cost increases unless the skills shortage can be met. There is currently a short fall of nearly 5,000 building apprentice commencements since last year and the Apprenticeship Kickstart Program should therefore help fill this apprenticeship deficit in the building and construction industry.’ www.masterbuilders.com.au/News/ShowArticle.asp?articleNo=586 (October 2009).

Section B: Course information
Rod Griffiths, Vice President of Stair and Balustrade Association of Australia Inc (SABAA) 2007, commented ‘Our industry suffers badly from a shortage of quality tradespeople; we all need to train’. www.sabaa.com.au/Magazine.html
The industry and teaching network who participated in the development of this proposed course have adopted and endorsed sustainable joinery/shopfitting/stairbuilding practices and the course has been developed to include principles of sustainability.
Industry also identified the need for a specific career pathway unit to be developed to properly inform prevocational students with options for continuing education in the joinery/shopfitting/ stairbuilding industries. (See Focus Group minutes.)
Current courseThe current course 21533VIC Certificate II in Joinery/Shopfitting/Stairbuilding (Preapprenticeship) was originally accredited 1 January 2004 – 31 December 2008. An extension to the accreditation period to 30 June 2011 has been granted by the VRQA (refer to Appendix 1) to allow for reaccreditation.The current course consists of modules (rather than competencies) and does not facilitate direct credit transfer into other qualifications such as apprenticeships in all three sectors.In this course, 12 units of competency are from existing Training Packages and six new units of competency have been written to meet the specific needs of the joinery/shopfitting/stairbuilding industries.The reaccredited course therefore has the support of the Steering Committee to be developed using units of competency that have a direct pathway using AQTF into: CPC31808 Certificate III in Shopfitting CPC32008 Certificate III in Carpentry and Joinery CPC31908 Certificate III in JoineryTarget groupThe target group for this course is from a range of age groups and backgrounds interested in securing a joinery/shopfitting/stairbuilding apprenticeship. The course is expected to be undertaken by school leavers aiming to enter the joinery, shopfitting and/or stairbuilding trades (new entrants), secondary school participants, as part of a VCE VET/VCAL program of study, in years 10, 11 or 12.Currently four RTOs have the previous course on their scope, each of which could deliver to one or two groups of 15 students per year.The course aims to give participants the skills and knowledge to develop informed pathways regarding the range of opportunities within the joinery/shopfitting/stairbuilding industries and streams in the industry before entering an apprenticeship.

Section B: Course information
The course also aims to impart practical hands on skills to assist the graduate to be ‘work ready’ by having a thorough knowledge of the tools and equipment for the trade as well as being exposed to the methodologies and most importantly safety.Employers hold apprenticeship seekers with a preapprenticeship qualification in high regard. This preapprenticeship training ensures those entering an apprenticeship are already committed to the trade and likely to continue on and complete their training contract. This qualification will serve as a valuable entry point to the industry that is highly regarded as a pathway to an apprenticeship.Skills and knowledge outcomesA Focus Group of industry representatives, RTOs, and practitioners was held on 16 June 2010 and feedback established the need to amend the course. The Focus Group (refer to Appendix 3: Focus Group participants) highlighted the skills and knowledge gaps in the current course. The industry representatives support the course development to encourage potential apprentices to complete the course. (Refer to Appendix 3: Minutes of the Focus Group meeting.)Following the Focus Group, a skills and knowledge survey was distributed to more than 20 recipients via email, to determine the scope of the skills and knowledge employers required in an applicant entering into an apprenticeship.The survey results reflect the skills and knowledge in the existing course, 21533VIC Certificate II in Joinery/Shopfitting/Stairbuilding (Preapprenticeship) and incorporate a range of newer skills and knowledge for emerging trends in the joinery/shopfitting/stairbuilding sector. The skills and knowledge profile results reflect the joinery, shopfitting and stairbuilding industries’ need for continued prevocational training in these sectors. (Refer to Appendix 4: Skills and knowledge profile). As employers, unions and training organisations regard prevocational training as an important precursor to employment in the construction industry, the survey results were presented for discussion at the first Steering Committee meeting held on Wednesday 21 July 2010. Throughout the course development process, there has been
wide support from teachers, industry and union representation. Two industry letters of support for the course are attached in Appendix 5: Letters of support

3.2 Review for reaccreditation
Standards 1 and 2 for Accredited CoursesThe current course 21533VIC Certificate II in Joinery/Shopfitting/Stairbuilding (Preapprenticeship) is written in modules and was accredited originally on 1 January 2004 – 31 December 2008. In November 2009 an extension to the period of accreditation was granted, with a new expiry date of 30 June 2011. Refer to Appendix 1.The proposed course is written in units of competency, 12 of the units align to units from national Training Packages, with six new written units of competency.Since 2004, a number of changes have taken place within the joinery/shopfitting/stairbuilding sector, which include new technologies, new materials and equipment and the development and inclusion of sustainable practices.A skills and knowledge Focus Group and survey was developed and the findings presented to a Steering Committee, consisting of industry representatives, RTOs, Industry Training Advisory Board, Industry Skills Council, unions and professional associations.The Steering Committee liaised with key stakeholders, members of the joinery/shopfitting/stairbuilding industries and Skills Victoria to redevelop the course to meet the current trends in the joinery/shopfitting/stairbuilding sector and training environment.Transition arrangements are shown in Appendix 2.This preapprenticeship provides an integrated education training opportunity for students and employers. The qualification allows for a reduction of training time for those signing an apprenticeship contract of training. This may depend on the currency and validity since completing the preapprenticeship. If the preapprenticeship qualification has recently been completed, and the apprentice is currently undertaking a Certificate III in the construction industry, credit of 7 weeks or 242 hours may be granted on completion of the apprenticeship. The apprentice may be required to provide substantiating evidence to validate the currency of the qualification.

Section B: Course information
Direct credit will be granted on successful completion of units of competency from national Training Packages.The course aims to create pathways into CPC31808 Certificate III in Shopfitting, CPC32008 Certificate III in Carpentry and Joinery, CPC31908 Certificate III in Joinery and to create awareness of the specialist’s options and sectors within the building and construction trade.If equivalence cannot be directly established, the student may choose to seek recognition though the RPL process. See Section 6.1
4. Course outcomes Standards 1, 2 and 3 for Accredited Courses
4.1 Qualification level The proposed AQF level is at a Certificate II and will be delivered as a preapprenticeship course.

6. Assessment Standard 10 for Accredited Courses6.1 Assessment strategy The nature of work undertaken in the joinery/shopfitting/
stairbuilding industries is hands on and practical. Assessment strategies should therefore reflect this. It is recommended that assessment be a holistic process that integrates a number of units in practical tasks or projects. Assessment strategies should be developed within the context of the range of variables, the underpinning skills and knowledge and the assessment requirements specified in each unit.Assessment strategies should be designed to: cover a range of skills and knowledge required to demonstrate
the intended course outcomes collect evidence on a number of occasions to suit a variety of
contexts and situations be appropriate to the skills, knowledge, methods of delivery and
needs/characteristics of students assist assessors to interpret evidence consistently recognise prior learning be equitable to all groups of students be valid, reliable, flexible and fair inform students of the context and purpose of the assessment
and the assessment process provide feedback to students about the outcomes of the
assessment process and guidance given for future options allow reasonable time to complete a task which specifically
reflects the industry context in which the task takes place.Recognition of prior learningAs the Certificate II in Joinery/Shopfitting/Stairbuilding (Preapprenticeship) is a prevocational course, it is unlikely that participants who seek to enrol will have previously achieved acceptable levels of knowledge, skill or ability.However, it is accepted that some participants may be entitled to have his or her prior learning recognised and may seek recognition for current relevant experience through the RPL process. Recognition acknowledges skills and knowledge that a student may have obtained through: formal training (by industry or educational institutions) work experience life experience.It is recommended that participants who wish to apply for RPL present a folio of evidence to support his or her claim.If a participant has a statement of attainment for modules or units of competency as identified in the course transition table (Appendix 2) these modules or units of competence will be recognised. If a student has a statement of attainment from another RTO for units included in this preapprenticeship, those units must be recognised and automatic credit granted.

7. Delivery
7.1 Delivery modes Standard 11 for Accredited CoursesIt is recommended that the units in this course be delivered in a simulated sequence that relates to applied joinery/shopfitting/stairbuilding industry project tasks.Adequate supervision must be provided whenever participants are using tools/equipment, working near dangerous machinery or substances or in potentially hazardous environments, particularly as the participants may have little or no experience in work conditions and practices. Each units of competency details the range of personal protective clothing and equipment that must be worn where the work situation warrants it to achieve the learning outcomes.It is recommended that the trainers/instructors involved in the delivery of this course conduct safe work method statements (SWMS) prior to delivery of the practical tasks that they will be supervising and report any occupational heath and safety concerns to their registered training organisation.It is recommended that a combination of delivery modes be used in this course, such as: teacher directed classroom sessions covering theory and
practical demonstrations individual/team-based assignments online delivery applied learning in workshop environment.The units may be delivered as stand-alone programs such as introductory classes or they may be integrated holistically with a number of units. The units have been developed to support a variety of applications within the context of the suggested range of variables. This particularly involves the use of practical industry-based activities and/or projects to develop skills and knowledge.

Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit
Assessment must confirm appropriate knowledge and skills to: participate in sustainable work practices such as:
* minimising resources used for the task* participating in the improvement of
environmental and resource efficient work practices at own level of responsibility
* following procedures to comply with environmental regulations
determine the different streams and sectors in the joinery/shopfitting/stairbuilding industries
identify employment services and opportunities develop a career pathway plan in the joinery/
shopfitting/stairbuilding sectors develop methods and strategies to seek work in
the joinery/shopfitting/stairbuilding industries apply methods and strategies to a simulated job
interview.
Context of and specific resources for assessment
Competency may be assessed on-site, in an off-site location or workshop.
Assessment is to occur under standard and authorised work practices, safety requirements and environmental constraints.
Assessment methods must confirm consistency and accuracy of performance (over time and in a range of workshop relevant contexts) together with application of underpinning knowledge.
Assessment may be applied under project-related conditions (real or simulated) and require evidence of process.
Assessment must confirm a reasonable inference that competency is not only able to be satisfied under the particular circumstance, but is able to be transferred to other circumstances.
The assessment environment should not disadvantage the candidate.
Assessment practices should take into account any relevant language or cultural issues related to cultural, gender or language backgrounds other than English.
Where the participant has a disability, reasonable adjustment may be applied during assessment.

Prepare for work in the joinery/shopfitting/stairbuilding industries
Method of assessment Assessment must be by direct observation of: job tasks with questioning on underpinning
knowledge and must also reinforce the integration of employability skills
the learner’s ability to apply the underpinning knowledge of tasks, through participation in group discussions, role playing, simulated interviewing, oral or written questioning.
Validity and sufficiency of evidence requires that: competency will need to be demonstrated over a
period of time reflecting the scope of the role and the practical requirements in the workplace
where the assessment is part of a structured learning experience, the evidence collected must relate to a number of performances assessed at different points in time and separated by further learning and practice, with a decision on competency only taken at the point when the assessor has complete confidence in the person’s demonstrated ability and applied knowledge.
