Case for Change
The objective of this project is to review the Certificate III in Automotive Manufacturing Technical Operations – Bus, Truck and Trailer (AUM30213), to ensure technical accuracy and currency, and to consider whether the qualification is meeting the needs of industry and learners. The Case for Change for this project was established as a result of initial research and consultation undertaken by the previous automotive Industry Skills Council, Auto Skills Australia. The project was submitted in a Case for Change – previously referred to as a Business Case – to the Australian Industry and Skills Committee (AISC) in December 2016.
Consultation
On behalf of the Automotive Heavy Vehicle Industry Reference Committee (IRC), PwC’s Skills for Australia carried out industry consultations for this project from November 2017 to January 2018. Consultation focused on assessing the following points:
- The occupations and job roles serviced by the qualification;
- The varying skills needs of workers in these occupations;
- The structure of the qualification and packaging rules needed to meet the differing occupations;
- The technical accuracy of the units within the qualification to meet changing technology within the automotive industry.
Following the IRC’s review of our key findings from consultation and the recommendations we proposed for changes to training products, we developed a draft training product to address the skills gap.
The final round of public consultation has now closed.
Training Product Development
The review of AUM30213 Certificate III in Automotive Manufacturing Technical Operations – Bus, Truck and Trailer, includes the following training products: 
The consultation period for feedback on draft training products has now closed.
A Case for Endorsement for changes to the Automotive Manufacturing Training Package has been submitted to the AISC, on behalf of the Automotive Heavy Vehicle IRC. It will be considered in August 2018. Thank you to all those who provided their valuable input, and remember to subscribe to our mailing list to be kept up to date on how the project is progressing.
