Description
This unit covers the competency required to conduct trials in an explosive ordnance research environment.Explosive ordnance trials are normally conducted to select new weapons systems or explosive ordnance for introduction into the Australian Defence Force.
Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1. Prepare for trials
- 1.1 Information on resource requirements and availability is obtained and confirmed in accordance with procedures
- 1.2 Information support systems for the trial, including achievable reporting and recording processes are prepared in accordance with resource requirements
- 1.3 Coordination issues with others affected by the trial are negotiated and resolved
- 1.4 Work health and safety (WHS) principles and requirements are identified and observed throughout the trial process
2. Conduct trials
- 2.1 Trial planners are identified and liaison is effected in accordance with policy and procedures
- 2.2 Trial plan is implemented, monitored and amended based on changing circumstances in accordance with methodologies and procedures
- 2.3 Resources are allocated to trial tasks in accordance with the plan and resource availability
- 2.4 Data being generated by the trial is recorded in accordance with the agreed methodology
3. Report on trials results
- 3.1 Data generated by the trial is collected and reported in accordance with policy and procedures
- 3.2 Options and recommendations resulting from the trial are provided in a clear and comprehensive format
- 3.3 Post trial reports, statistical reports and other records are produced and maintained in accordance with requirements

The evidence guide provides advice on assessment and must be read in conjunction with the Performance Criteria, Required Skills and Knowledge, the Range Statement and the Assessment Guidelines for this Training Package.
Critical aspects for assessment and evidence required to demonstrate competency in this unit
Assessment must confirm the ability to:
implement trial methodologies and procedures
identify issues and liaise with trials
identify and coordinate trial resources
record trial data
document trial results
Consistency in performance
Competency should be demonstrated in a range of actual or simulated trials contexts.
Context of and specific resources for assessment
Context of assessment
Competency should be assessed in the workplace or under conditions which accurately simulate a realistic workplace.
Specific resources for assessment
Access is required to:
facilities and resources used in conducting trials in a research environment
Method of assessment
In a public safety environment assessment is usually conducted via direct observation in a training environment or in the workplace via subject matter supervision and/or mentoring, which is typically recorded in a competency workbook.
Assessment is completed using appropriately qualified assessors who select the most appropriate method of assessment.
Assessment may occur in an operational environment or in an industry-approved simulated work environment. Forms of assessment that are typically used include:
direct observation
interviewing the candidate
journals and workplace documentation
third party reports from supervisors
written or oral questions
