Implementation of competency standards may have wage and industrial relations ramifications. It is important that managers know how the standards work and the structured process for implementation, as well as the possible consequences and issues arising from such implementation. 

This two session program details what competency standards are, the structured process for implementation, and the potential benefits, as well as problems which may occur along the way. It includes practical examples and exercises to assist participants in coming to grips with the "nuts and bolts". It also meets the requirements of Clause 20.5 (v) of the Manufacturing and Associated Industries and Occupations Award 2020.

  • Explain the background to the development of competency standards in the metal and engineering industry 
  • Demonstrate an understanding of the Industry Parties agreement to implement competency standards 
  • Describe the key elements of the competency standards model and how it relates to the classification structures in the Award 
  • Identify ways in which competency standards can be applied in an organisation 
  • Recognise the link between competency standards implementation and other improvement programs
