Reason for the revision

 

During the development of the proposed National Certificate in Roadmarking (Operator) with strands in A-Type Applicator and B-Type Applicator with optional strands in Materials Loading, Raised Pavement Markers, Piloting on Level 1 Roads, Piloting on Level 2 and 3 Roads, Temporary Traffic Management on Level 2 and 3 Roads, and Preformed Thermoplastics, it was decided to revise the entry requirements for this unit standard.

 

The prerequisites were creating barriers for people not working on Level 2 and 3 roads who were therefore unable to meet the requirements of Unit 20879, Operate as a Site Traffic Management Supervisor – Non Practising (STMS-NP) for Level 2 and 3 roads, and Unit 20880, Operate as a Site Traffic Management Supervisor (STMS) for Level 2 and 3 roads.

 

The prerequisite Unit 5627, Operate as a Traffic Controller (TC) for low volume and Level 1 roads, remains.

Removal of unit standards 20879 and 20880 from entry information.
