Thank you to everyone who provided feedback on the draft Certificate III in Feedlot Operations and units of competency that support the skills to work in the livestock industry. It is important that the skills standards for working with and alongside livestock are kept up to date to support future learners.
Feedback received between 3 May and 5 June 2024 has indicated the need to develop two new units:
- an introductory unit to work safely with stock horses
- a detailed branding livestock unit.
The two new units are now available on the project page for feedback. The updated draft Certificate III in Feedlot Operations, three existing stock horse units and the companion volume implementation guide are also available for further feedback as they will be impacted by the development of the new units.
Those with experience working with stock horses or branding livestock, are encouraged to provide input.
