Description
This unit of competency defines the skills and knowledge required to use CAD software and equipment to produce 3D drawings of jewellery or object models. Drawings can be used to generate and document designs and inform production of jewellery or objects and incorporate standard practice notations and drawing protocols.This unit applies to individuals involved in jewellery or object design or manufacture in a small or large-scale production context. They use and adapt technical knowledge and skills to produce work.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.Band: AUnit Weight: 4
