To undertake and successfully complete all of the units of competency within an individual qualification, students will need to possess reading, writing, and numeracy skills at the applicable unit level. As part of the enrolment process students will be provided with an electronic link by ATOD that will enable them to undertake an ‘online’ evaluation to determine their current level of skills in the three areas. Please note some units of competency do not require all three skills concurrently. The results of the evaluation will determine if a student requires any learning support whilst undertaking each unit of competency.
This qualification will provide students with a strong foundation of knowledge with which they could pursue a career in the Creative Arts/Performing Arts industries. Students will learn skills which are transferrable between vocations, such as team work, advertising and marketing of events, as well as production management, audition techniques for performance and workplace health & safety requirements for the creative arts industries.
