DESCRIPTION 

Numeracy

• Extracts, evaluates and manipulates the mathematical information embedded in a range of tasks and texts

Oral communication

• Articulates information and requirements, using effective communication techniques and industry standard technical language intended for audience and environment

Reading

• Identifies, analyses, and interprets complex technical and business protocol material in order to determine business requirements

Writing

• Accurately records and completes documentation according to organisational formats and procedures
• Writes and edits code and technical data in a logical manner using required syntax

Initiative and enterprise

• Demonstrates sophisticated knowledge of the principles, concepts, language and practices associated with the digital world, and uses these to troubleshoot, and understand the uses and potential of new technology

Planning and organising

• Uses a mix of intuitive and formal processes to identify key information and issues, evaluate alternative strategies, anticipate consequences, implementation issues and contingencies
• When dealing with complex issues, may use intuition to identify common problems in building, and deploying mobile applications, and completing basic program debugging

Problem solving

• Uses nuanced knowledge of context to demonstrate and knowledge of anomalies and subtle deviations to normal expectations, focusing attention and remedying problems as they arise

Self-management

• Responds to both, explicit and implicit, protocols within familiar work contexts

Technology
