Description

This qualification provides an occupational outcome in metal roofing and cladding.

Occupational titles may include:
Roofer.

The qualification has core and elective units of competency that include units common to other qualifications in the plumbing industry, as well as specialist metal roofing and cladding units of competency.

The plumbing industry strongly affirms that training and assessment leading to recognition of skills must be undertaken in a real or very closely simulated workplace environment and this qualification requires all units of competency to be delivered in this context.

Completion of the general induction training program specified by the National Code of Practice for Induction Training for Construction Work (ASCC 2007) is required before entering a construction work site. Achievement of unit CPCCOHS1001A covers this requirement.

Schedule
Packaging Rules
To achieve this qualification, the candidate must demonstrate competency in twenty four (24) units of competency:
- fifteen (15) core units
- nine (9) elective units.

The elective units are to be chosen as follows:
- up to nine (9) units from general elective units
- up to our (4) units from Certificate II qualifications in CPC08 or another current Training Package or state accredited course, provided the integrity of the AQF alignment is ensured, and that they contribute to a valid, industry-supported vocational outcome.

Some units in this qualification may have prerequisite requirements, which must be met when packaging the qualification. Users are referred to the list of CPC08 units with prerequisite unit requirements available in this Training Package for this purpose.
