5. ELECTIVE
Changes due to National Reviews/Updates The following unit(s) of competence were part of the original national qualification (or earlier version) but have been updated and replaced by a later version of that unit of competence. Even though the unit name may be slightly different, the national ID number for the unit will have a later version of alphabetic code. For example, unit WRRLP.6A has been replaced by WRRLP.6B. Students who have completed the earlier version of a unit (listed below), should not be disadvantaged and should be given an exemption from the later version (listed above), as the content has usually only been updated due to minor (ie, legislation/Government Acts, etc) updates. Where elements have been added/deleted or significant changes have ocurred, then a new national number entirely will be be issued.
| State Code | National Code | Title | Hours | Type |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| N0015 | WRRLP.6A | Apply hygiene and sanitation practices | 12 | Unit of competency |
