Overview

This unit involves the skills and knowledge required to compile and produce an energy sector detailed report.
It includes planning; identifying information sources; collecting, analysing and formatting information applicable to the electrotechnology industry in developing and obtaining approval for energy sector report.This unit is typically for technicians working as part of a product/application/service research and/or design, development and implementation team. This generally involves working closely with a range of management and production/operations personnel and requires balancing the business and technical sides of the research process.

Assessment
