Application

This unit describes the skills and knowledge required to use oral communication skills to facilitate complex workplace team interactions, such as leading group discussions, negotiating agreed outcomes, explaining workplace procedures, or exploring workflow issues.

An individual performing these tasks works independently and initiates and uses support from a range of established resources.

This unit applies to individuals who use, or are preparing to use, oral communication skills to complete workplace activities. This includes existing workers and individuals preparing for employment through vocational education and training. This unit should be integrated and contextualised with vocational training to support achievement of vocational competency.

This unit is aligned to, but does not fully address, the Australian Core Skills Framework (ACSF) oral communication core skill indicators .07 and .08 at level 4 in the workplace and employment domain of communication.

No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
