4 Purpose This document forms the guide to delivering and assessing the Units of Competency embedded in the Undertake Confined Space Rescue course. The Undertake Confined Space Rescue course is designed to train people to respond to emergency situations within confined spaces and remove them from harm, in accordance with Work Health and Safety legislation. The course consists of planning for confined space rescue, setting up and use of rescue equipment (e.g. stretchers and rope retrieval systems), use of emergency procedures and undertaking practical simulations to build and apply rescue skills and competencies. This course has been designed and tailored to a learner cohort with current confined space competencies that assumes a certain level of competency. Please refer to the prerequisites section below for further information. Vocational Target This course is delivered and assessed at a vocational level of 2. Graduates at this level will have knowledge and skills for work in a defined context and/or further learning Course Duration The course is run over a period of 8 hours and can be integrated into other training courses such as the Confined Space Skill Set. Delivery Mode This program will be delivered over 1 day period, consisting of both practical and theoretical training. All training will be delivered face to face. Assessment Requirements The assessment requirements are both formative and summative in nature and will include practical assessments, oral questioning and group discussions. The assessment will take place at varying times throughout the course. Award and Recognition Units of competency awarded once the candidate has been found competent in all assessment activities: PUASAR025A - Undertake confined space rescue Prerequisites Where this course is delivered in the Fire Sector, the pre-requisites are as follows: PUASAR022A Participate in a rescue operation (Fire sector specific) PUAFIR316 Identify, detect and monitor hazardous materials at an incident (Fire sector specific) TAS - Undertake Confined Space Rescue VC 0.3.docx 4 of 14
5 The prerequisites listed above are only applicable when the unit is being delivered as part of a fire sector specific qualification. Where this course is being delivered outside of the Fire Sector, there are no formal prerequisite units specified by the training package however, due to the intended learner cohort, the syllabus has been designed to recognise previous training and the amount of time adjusted for participants with current qualifications in Confined Space Entry, Breathing Apparatus and Atmospheric Testing. As a result of the adjustment in the intended delivery, participants are required to hold the following qualifications or equivalent issued within the past 3 years. MSMWHS216 Operate Breathing Apparatus (or equivalent) MSMWHS217 Gas Test Atmosphere (or equivalent) RIIWHS202D Enter and Work in Confined Spaces (or equivalent) Evidence of training or competencies must be obtained prior to the course being delivered. Fitness Requirements The Undertake Confined Space Rescue course is a very practical course and requires a certain level of fitness. Persons participating in the course should feel comfortable climbing in and out of confined spaces, using ladders, climbing up and down ropes using mechanical assistance and hauling simulation dummies during rescue scenarios. Clothing Requirements Work clothing is required when conducting practical activities. A minimum of long sleeved shirt with long pants and sturdy footwear. Thongs, sandals, high heels, shorts, skirts and dresses are not permitted to be worn during practical activities. Trainer Competencies To be eligible to Train and Assess the Undertake Confined Space Rescue Course, EMS Trainers and Assessors must meet the following minimum requirements prior to conducting the course: Qualifications Cert IV Training and Assessment (including the LLN Unit of competency) Undertake Confined Space Rescue competencies equivalent to the level being assessed.
