Strategic Purpose Statement |
This qualification is for people who supervise maintenance and operations in water reticulation, and those with specialist skills in associated activities.
The qualification recognises the skills required to supervise and lead water reticulation projects involving plant, equipment, and vehicles; organise the supply and storage of materials; produce and use as-built plans; communicate with associated organisations, peers, and members of the public; implement permit requirements; and maintain records. People will also have specialist water reticulation knowledge in areas such as, location of reticulation services, trenching, pipe jointing, asset management, and maintenance requirements; as well as general knowledge of hazard identification and control. Strands recognise the skills and knowledge required to specialise in either water or wastewater within an organisation. The Water strand includes the knowledge required for reticulation system cleaning and disinfection, pressure zones and backflow prevention, and water quality monitoring and preventative measures; along with the skills to service, clean, disinfect and restore reservoirs and reticulation mains, and maintain water quality in water supply reticulation systems. The Wastewater strand includes the knowledge required for sewer management; wastewater composition, corrosion in sewers, and odour control; and wastewater flows and flow measurement. Wastewater management has particular safety requirements, and holders will also have the skills to safely enter, work in, and exit a confined space. Both the core elective, and strand elective sections recognise variations between organisations, and work that is specific to locations. The qualification builds on the knowledge and skills recognised by the National Certificate in Water Reticulation (Service Person) (Level 3) with strands in Water, and Wastewater [Ref: 0962]. Completion of this qualification can lead to other related qualifications in civil engineering such as the National Diploma in Civil Engineering [Ref: 0881]. |
