Foundation skills

• Reading: Evaluates information and products from a variety of sources to ensure appropriateness to client needs
• Writing: Develops accurate and industry specific drawings Writes computer code and commands and records technical data, ensuring correct syntax and accuracy
• Oral Communication: Uses clear language and concepts, and tone and pace appropriate for audience and purpose
• Numeracy: Performs basic mathematical calculations to compare and verify connectivity
• Navigate the world of work: Understands roles and responsibilities for task and makes basic decisions on work and completion parameters Ensures knowledge of WHS requirements Recognises organisational expectations and follows explicit protocols and procedures Seeks clarification when required
• Interact with others: Follows instructions regarding what and how to communicate, following predetermined scripts Initiates a connection with others through verbal, or nonverbal communication responding as appropriate
• Get the work done: Plans and implements routine tasks and workload, making limited decisions on sequencing, timing and collaboration, and seeks assistance in setting priorities Makes low-impact decisions within familiar situations, based on a range of predefined or routine solutions and evaluates outcome effectiveness Responds to predictable routine problems and implements standard or logical solutions Uses digital technology for basic reading, recording and searching information, and for communications following routine procedures and security requirements
