PURPOSE OF THE UNIT STANDARD 
Transporting and lifting tooling such as moulds, dies or forming devices and cleaning and maintaining them during production. 

LEARNING ASSUMED TO BE IN PLACE AND RECOGNITION OF PRIOR LEARNING 
This unit standard has been designed as part of a progression. It is one of a series of unit standards for activities below, at and above this level. The credits assigned to it are based on the assumption that I have already been assessed and have obtained credits for related activities at this level or below it.

If I have experience in these related activities but do not have such credits, I can obtain credits by being assessed through a process which recognises prior learning.

If I do not have such experience, then my learning time will be increased. I can choose to be assessed and obtain credits against those other unit standards as I make progress towards the outcomes of this unit standard. 

UNIT STANDARD RANGE 
Tooling refers to moulds, dies, forming devices using in the shaping and forming of end products

Tooling components includes but are not limited to, ejector-, adjuster-, Deckle bars; stripper plates; slides; cores; spacers

    This information shows the current accreditations (i.e. those not past their accreditation end dates), and is the most complete record available to SAQA as of today. Some Primary or Delegated Quality Assurance Functionaries have a lag in their recording systems for provider accreditation, in turn leading to a lag in notifying SAQA of all the providers that they have accredited to offer qualifications and unit standards, as well as any extensions to accreditation end dates. The relevant Primary or Delegated Quality Assurance Functionary should be notified if a record appears to be missing from here.
