PURPOSE AND RATIONALE OF THE QUALIFICATION 
A person acquiring this qualification will be able to produce a safe, quality assured, wine product by operating, controlling and maintaining an automated wine processing plant.
This qualification will contribute to the full development of the learner with in the wine processing environment by providing recognition, further mobility and transportability within the field of manufacturing and assembly. The skills, knowledge and understanding demonstrated within this qualification are essential for social and economic transformation and contribute to the upliftment and economic growth within the wine manufacturing and processing environment.


Rationale of the qualification
The typical learner identified to benefit from this qualification will be a person operating processing equipment in an automated wine processing plant. At present there is no such qualification and this qualification will fill a priority identified by the Food and Beverage SETA sector skills plan. This qualification will provide the basis for further learning in production supervision and manufacturing management. This qualification will improve the effectiveness and productivity of the manufacturing process in the food and beverage sector in South Africa and thus provide an impetus for improved global competitiveness. 

LEARNING ASSUMED TO BE IN PLACE AND RECOGNITION OF PRIOR LEARNING 
A knowledge, comprehension and application of language, mathematics, natural science and technology principles at NQF level 1 and 2.


Recognition of prior learning
This qualification may be achieved in part or completely through the recognition of prior learning, which includes formal, informal and non-formal learning and work experience.

    Integrated Assessment
    The applied competence (practical, foundational and reflexive competencies) of acquiring this qualification will be able to produce a safe, quality assured, wine product by operating, controlling and maintaining an automated wine processing plant.
    The identifying and solving of problems, team work, organising one-self, the using of applied science, the implication of actions and reactions in the world as a set of related systems must be assessed during any combination of practical, foundational and reflexive competencies assessment methods and tools to determine the whole person development and integration of applied knowledge and skills.
    The preparation, cleaning and sanitising, first line maintenance and quality assurance related to processing in the workplace can be assessed in one application.
    Applicable assessment tool(s)must be used to establish the foundational, reflective and embedded knowledge to problem solving and application of the world as a set of related systems within the processing environment.
    A detailed portfolio of evidence is required to prove the practical, applied and foundational competencies of the learner.
    Assessors and moderators should develop and conduct their own integrated assessment by making use of a range of formative and summative assessment methods. Assessors should assess and give credit for the evidence of learning that has already been acquired through formal, informal and non-formal learning and work experience.
    Unit standards in the qualification must be used to assess specific and critical cross-field outcomes. During integrated assessments the assessor should make use of formative and summative assessment methods and should assess combinations of practical, applied, foundational and reflective competencies. 

    INTERNATIONAL COMPARABILITY
