Review of shared resources and infrastructure units
Responsibility for the maintenance and review of training products within the RII Resources and Infrastructure Industry Training Package is shared between AUSMASA and BuildSkills Australia. AUSMASA’s interest is in the mining related products while BuildSkills Australia attends to products that impact civil construction. In some cases, the competencies listed in the training package impact both the mining and the civil construction workforce.
AUSMASA will collaborate with BuildSkills to provide input into any proposed changes to the relevant units.
In this project, AUSMASA will collaborate with BuildSkills for the review of the following units of competency relevant to the mining sector:
RIIWHS202E - Enter and work in confined spaces
RIIWHS204E - Work safely at heights
RIIBEF201E - Plan and organise work
RIIMPO319E - Conduct backhoe/loader operations
RIIMPO337E - Conduct articulated haul truck operations
RIIMPO338E - Conduct rigid haul truck operations
AUSMASA is calling for Expressions of Interest from within the mining industry to join the Technical Committee established by BuildSkills Australia to review the units.
These 6 RII units are being reviewed as part of a larger project undertaken by BuildSkills Australia. For more information on the corresponding project for civil construction stakeholders, please visit the BuildSkills Australia website.
The project will commence in February 2025 and is due for completion in May 2026.
