Notes

(1) Refer Signals RSW Competence procedure Section 7.8.5, In addition if you are assessed against the TIC and SME requirement the SoC must also be uploaded into this area within RIW System. (12) Signal TIC must have a proficiency level of 3 in the "test "section of the test SoC, and minimum level 2 in all other areas of the assessed test SOC and must be signed by SME & Assessor & the applicant, and
the Role then applied for within RIW System, and approved by MTM Head of Engineering-Signalling
(2) The Metro Letter of Authorisation/ Qualification Equivalence Certificate for the role can only be issued by MTM Head of Engineering-Signalling after the RSW required evidence has been loaded within RIW (13) MTM Signals Standards induction shall be specific to the RSW "Role". All MTM Signal Standards Induction questions are available from a MTM endorsed signal assessor or available from the Metro Academy
System website.
(3) Refer www.metrotrains.com.au/academy for all signal competency forms, supporting documentation, MTM updates and competency information. (14).
