2.2
Boat is positioned to ensure that there will be no damage during loading,
transport, and unloading.
Range
2.3
Adjustment to the provided containment system ensures that it can withstand
the stresses associated with the distance and transport method of the proposed
journey.
Range
2.4
damage caused by impact, or by friction between the boat and the
containment system.
adjustment – additional strengthening, bracing.
Loading is monitored visually and aurally so that contingency action can be
taken before damage or injury can occur.
Range
contingency actions – stop lift, re-lift, provide additional or
alternative containment system.
Please note
Providers must be accredited by NZQA, or an inter-institutional body with delegated
authority for quality assurance, before they can report credits from assessment against
unit standards or deliver courses of study leading to that assessment.
Industry Training Organisations must be accredited by NZQA before they can register
credits from assessment against unit standards.
Accredited providers and Industry Training Organisations assessing against unit standards
must engage with the moderation system that applies to those standards.
Accreditation requirements and an outline of the moderation system that applies to this
standard are outlined in the Accreditation and Moderation Action Plan (AMAP). The
AMAP also includes useful information about special requirements for organisations
wishing to develop education and training programmes, such as minimum qualifications for
tutors and assessors, and special resource requirements.
