Background Information

To attain the Certificate III with a Telecommunications Rigging specialisation learners are required to complete three (3) elective units of competency from the Group J Telecommunications Rigging  specialisation. This group, however, currently only offers one unit of competency ICTTCR203 Use safe rigging practices to climb and perform rescues on telecommunications network structures; therefore, the qualification with this specialisation is currently unattainable for learners.  

Consultation also identified an update required in the unit of competency  ICTCBL247 Install, maintain, and modify customer premises communications cabling.  A legislative reference in the knowledge evidence lists an outdated version of the  Australian Standard AS/CA S009 that needs to be updated to the current  Communications Alliance – Standard from AS/CA S009 Installation Requirements for customer cabling (Wiring Rules).​

The process to update the qualification will adhere to the Training Package Products Development and Endorsement Process Policy.
