This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to develop simple drawing techniques for representing and communicating ideas. It does not relate to drawing as an art form. In a work or learning context this unit may relate to visually communicating ideas about objects, as well as the use of space, narratives or the steps in a process.
People working in many industries apply the skills and knowledge in this unit.
At this level, a limited range of techniques would be expected, and work would normally be completed under supervision.
No licensing, legislative, regulatory or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of endorsement.

Evidence of the ability to: produce multiple drawings that: demonstrate a basic command of nominated techniques communicate ideas are appropriate for the presentation context. | |
Assessment must ensure access to: equipment and materials used to produce drawings. | |
A range of assessment methods should be used to assess practical skills and knowledge. The following examples are appropriate for this unit: direct observation of work in progress evaluation of drawings oral or written questioning to assess knowledge of drawing techniques and materials review of portfolios of evidence review of third-party reports from experienced practitioners. Assessment methods should closely reflect workplace demands (e.g. literacy) and the needs of particular groups (e.g. people with disabilities, and people who may have literacy or numeracy difficulties, such as speakers of languages other than English, remote communities and those with interrupted schooling). | |
Holistic assessment with other units relevant to the industry sector, workplace and job role is recommended. |
