Learning Outcomes

This unit specifies the skills and knowledge required to design irrigation systems to relevant Australian Standards, codes, the National Construction Code (NCC) and other relevant legislative requirements to meet occupier needs and industry standards. This unit covers requirements for work in a consultancy or supervisory capacity in relation to the design of irrigation systems for residential, commercial, industrial, sporting ovals and agricultural properties with or without connection to reticulated supply. In some jurisdictions, this unit of competency may form part of accreditation, licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements.
