Scoping Study for the CPC08 Plumbing & Services Qualifications and the CPP07 Fire Protection Inspection & Testing Qualifications Draft Proposal for the redesign of CPC50509 Diploma of Fire Systems Design At the National Fire Industry Reference Group (NFIRG) meeting held on 28th April 2015 it was agreed to seek wider stakeholder feedback on the following proposed changes to CPC50509 Diploma of Fire Systems Design: Retain this qualification with consideration of amendments and additions suggested – generate detailed proposal in consultation with SMEs. It was also agreed to seek wider stakeholder feedback on changes that may be required to the Annual certifier stream; after consultation it has been clarified that this stream should be retained as is; the stream covers annual certification of existing systems i.e. the total protection within the building. A new stream covering auditing of the compliance of systems has been added to this qualification. Units covering the work involved in confirming that a system has been installed according to the design, and commissioning the system at installation, are proposed for inclusion in the new Certificate IV in Fire Services. Table 1, following, lists the units currently included in the qualification and includes a column showing the proposed treatment of units based on the decisions taken by project governance groups (NPSCIRG and NFIRG) and input to the survey from industry practitioners and VET stakeholders. Following the table is the proposed structure of the DRAFT redesigned qualification – based on Table 1. Note STP = Standards for Training Packages Feedback has been received from both the ABCB and the VBA that increased specificity regarding regulatory compliance is required across all units i.e. references to: NCC, PCA and AS.
