HOW TO USE THIS COMPETENCY BASED LEARNING
MATERIAL
Welcome to the module in “Developing Event Program”. This
module contains training materials and activities for you to
complete.
The unit of competency “Develop Event Program “covers the
knowledge, skills and attitudes needed to configure computer systems
and networks. It is one of the specialized modules required to complete
the course Events Management NC III
You are required to go through a series of learning activities in order to
complete each learning outcome of the module. Each learning outcomes is
provided with Information Sheets (Reference Materials for further
reading to help you better understand the required activities). Follow
these activities on your own and answer the self-check at the end of each
learning outcome. You may remove a blank answer sheet at the end of
each module (or get one from your facilitator/trainer) to write your
answers for each self-check. If you have questions, don’t hesitate to ask
your facilitator for assistance.
Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL)
You may already have some or most of the knowledge and skills
covered in this learner's guide because you have:
been working for some time
already completed training in this area.
If you can demonstrate to your trainer that you are competent in a
particular skill or skills, talk to him/her about having them formally
recognized so you don't have to do the same training again. If you have a
qualification or Certificate of Competency from previous trainings, show it
to your trainer. If the skills you acquired are still current and relevant to
the unit/s of competency they may become part of the evidence you can
present for RPL. If you are not sure about the currency of your skills,
discuss this with your trainer.
At the end of this module is a Learner’s Diary. Use this diary to
record important dates, jobs undertaken and other workplace events that
will assist you in providing further details to your trainer or assessor. A
Record of Achievement is also provided for your trainer to complete
once you complete the module.
This module was prepared to help you achieve the required
competency, in Setting up Equipment and Trolley, Accessing Rooms for
Servicing, Making-up Beds, Cleaning and Clearing Rooms and Cleaning
and Storing Trolleys and Equipment. This will be the source of
information for you to acquire knowledge and skills in this particular
trade independently and at your own pace, with minimum supervision or
help from your instructor.
Talk to your trainer and agree on how you will both organize the
Training of this unit. Read through the module carefully. It is
divided into sections, which cover all the skills, and knowledge you
need to successfully complete this module.
Work through all the information and complete the activities in
each section. Read information sheets and complete the self-check.
Suggested references are included to supplement the materials
provided in this module.
Most probably your trainer will also be your supervisor or manager.
He/she is there to support you and show you the correct way to do
things.
Your trainer will tell you about the important things you need to
consider when you are completing activities and it is important that
you listen and take notes.
You will be given plenty of opportunity to ask questions and
practice on the job. Make sure you practice your new skills during
regular work shifts. This way you will improve both your speed and
memory and also your confidence.
Talk to more experience workmates and ask for their guidance.
Use the self-check questions at the end of each section to test your
own progress.
When you are ready, ask your trainer to watch you perform the
activities outlined in this module.
As you work through the activities, ask for written feedback on your
progress. Your trainer keeps feedback/ pre-assessment reports for
this reason. When you have successfully completed each element,
ask your trainer to mark on the reports that you are ready for
assessment.
When you have completed this module (or several modules), and
feel confident that you have had sufficient practice, your trainer will
arrange an appointment with registered assessor to assess you. The
results of your assessment will be recorded in your competency
