PURPOSE OF THE UNIT STANDARD |
This Unit Standard is for persons who are expected to inspect the quality of repaired electronics circuit boards. This unit standard will provide learners with techniques of inspection in order to ensure adherence to organisational set standards and procedures. Qualifying learners will be able to inspect products and processes, conduct tests on finished products in order to eliminate problems as well as collecting relevant data for quality control purposes.
Learners credited with this unit standard are capable of: |
LEARNING ASSUMED TO BE IN PLACE AND RECOGNITION OF PRIOR LEARNING |
It is assumed that learners are competent in:

PROVIDERS CURRENTLY ACCREDITED TO OFFER THIS UNIT STANDARD: |
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. |
