Regardless of the mode of delivery, represent a guide to the relative teaching time and student effort required to successfully achieve a particular competency/module. This may include not only scheduled classes or workplace visits but also the amount of effort required to undertake, evaluate and complete all assessment requirements, including any non-classroom activities.

Pre-requisites and Co-requisites

MEM23004A - Apply technical mathematics

The delivery and assessment guidelines allow the assessment of prerequisites to occur concurrently with higher level units i.e. units require pre-requisites. In accordance with these guidelines, students will not be deemed 'competent' in the higher-level unit until they are deemed competent in the prerequisite unit.

Therefore, students must be deemed competent in the pre-requisite unit MEM23004A prior to being deemed competent in MEM14091A.

Course Description

This unit of competency covers the integration of manufacturing fundamentals to achieve an engineering or related task. It includes identifying task parameters, personal and team functions, and work health and safety (WHS) guidelines. It includes investigation of function and features of manufacturing plant, methods and processes and manufacturing fundamentals, including workshop techniques, materials, scientific and mathematical principles, and computer software
