Learning Outcomes
The application of this unit in the workplace sees an individual designer using computer aided design systems to create 3D surface models in response to a brief and presenting the model to the client. This work would usually be carried out independently although guidance would be available if required.
Overview of Assessment
A person who demonstrates competency in this unit will be able to realise the outcomes described in the Elements
to the required level detailed in the Performance Criteria.
The ability to create 3D surface models using computeraided design systems in response to a brief using advanced skills and high-end application and which:
• demonstrates a command of advanced skills to create surface models
• demonstrates a command of using high-end technology
• demonstrates a sound knowledge of brief interpretation
• demonstrates problem solving skills
• demonstrates communication and presentation skills
The essential knowledge and skills must be assessed as part of the unit.
