This course is designed to provide new participants with the theoretical and practical skills and knowledge required to work in the civil construction and maintenance industry across a wide range of related specialist areas. People undertaking this course may learn a range of skills including infrastructure and building site preparation, environmental and safety requirements, operation of machinery and equipment, installing pipework and drainage systems, spreading and compacting materials and carrying out concrete work. Importantly, existing workers who have experience in the industry but do not have recognised qualifications can also utilise this course as means of getting their current skills and competencies recognised through a Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) process. Delivery The training can be delivered entirely on site at the employers premises and the structure is negotiated to meet the operational requirements of the business. This will include scheduled face to face visits by the Carey Training mentor who will also provide ongoing support and mentoring via , telephone or visits for the duration of the program. All resources including manuals, assessment and reference materials will be provided. Assessment A Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) process will be undertaken prior to the commencement of the training to identify the skills and knowledge the person has acquired through work experience, formal and informal training and / or general life experience. Once the trainer confirms the evidence of current competency a training plan can be negotiated. Ongoing assessments will be conducted throughout the program and may include completion of activity workbooks, actual or simulated workplace activities, observation of skills and knowledge applied within the workplace, written tests, research projects and informal / formal questioning.
