INTRODUCTION

The Grenada National Training Agency (GNTA) as empowered by the GCTVET Act of 2009 is the

agency mandated to co-ordinate, facilitate and enable the development and growth of Technical and

Vocational Education and Training in Grenada Carriacou and Petite Martinique.

The Agency through modes of training intervention intends to help in ensuring that there exists a

supply of trained and skilled workers to service labour market needs and thereby contribute to higher

levels of productivity in the Grenadian economy. The organisation by way of policy seeks to have

developed and approved occupational standards derived from industry specifications and to guide the

training, assessment and certification within the Grenada TVET System.

The Grenada Council for Technical Vocational Education and Training (GCTVET) created by an ACT

of parliament in 2009 is empowered to approve standards for the award certification leading to CVQ’s

and NVQ’s.

The GNTA has established industry lead groups responsible for vetting standards as well as specifying

and recommending standards to be approved.

This qualification is for persons involved in the Boat building industry. It is one of the oldest branches

of engineering and is concerned with the constructing of hulls of boats and sail boat, the masts, spars

and rigging. Boat builders build, repair fit out and sometimes design boats and marine components.

The purpose of this qualification is to provide the marine industry with people who have the knowledge

and skills to work as a team, supervised to refit and construct new vessels. This is an entry level

qualification for persons intending to enter or who are already working in the boatbuilding sector in

the refit or construction of vessels.

However, persons can thereafter move up the various levels 2to 5 with the degree of difficulty in the

performance the duties to be determined by the level at which the employee is defined.

See the qualification levels as indicated by the chart.

CVQ

ABOUT THIS STANDARD

This is a National Occupational Standard that is approved for training and certification in Grenada.

This standard was adapted and approved by the Grenada Council for Technical Vocational Education

and Training (GCTVET) on 15th February 2018.

There are some minor modifications made to accommodate the local context; however the overall

content of the document is unchanged.

CVQ

QUALIFICATION OVERVIEW

The NVQ Level 1 in Traditional Boatbuilding for individuals whose role in the marine sector requires

well developed behavioural competencies but whose scope for independent decision making and for

bringing about change is limited. They will have to work under supervision.

They are likely to be in roles where they are required to:

Erect and dismantle restricted height scaffolding

Work safely around power sources, services and assets

Select wood for specific application

Select and square wood and form to template

Move and store materials and products

Normally persons working at Level 1 should be able to competently carry out simple and routine work

activities and to collaborate with others. The qualification covers competencies by providing services

in boatbuilding as indicated in the competency standard.

Boat builders may specialize in the following:

Chandlery – selling boats and boating equipment

Marine Crating – such as painting

Marine Interns – such as furnishings

Marine Systems – engineering- electrical wiring

Yacht Structure – such as rigging, spar making, sail making

Production Boatbuilding (boats build in an assembly line).

Naval or Architects – who plan, design and supervise the construction and repair of ships, yachts and boats.

Related jobs include:

Architect – plan, design and advise on the construction and alteration of building.

Architectural Technician – Interpret sketches and designs produced by an architect, architectural designer or client. They make working drawings such a floor plan, elevations etc.

Marine Engineer – they operate, service and repair engines and mechanical and electronic equipment on ships and boats.

Fabrication Engineers – make, install and repair metal products such as vents, hand rails, boilers air crafts and boat parts.

CVQ

To achieve this qualification all core units must be achieved. The nominal training hours are a guide

for planning the delivery of training programmes.

Please note that certification can be gained through formal training or on- the- job experience by

scheduling assessments with the Grenada National Training Agency (GNTA) Certified Assessors.

RANGE STATEMENT

This unit covers competencies needed for situations where employees must collectively undertake a task e.g.: three or four technicians co-operating to perform a boatbuilding task, or a group of technicians who undertake a task in close proximity to each other.

This unit deals with the skills and knowledge required to effectively undertake interactive communication at the workplace, and applies to all individuals working in the traditional boatbuilding industry

Techniques that could be used as the subject of communication include but are not limited to:

sketches using applicable trade terminology drawings using applicable trade terminology telephone sketches using applicable trade terminology production schedules written machine or job instructions using applicable trade terminology client instructions face to face communication using applicable trade terminology signage work schedules/work bulletins written report using applicable trade terminology

EVIDENCE GUIDE

Competency is to be demonstrated by the effective use of methods of communication relating to instructions, information sources and meeting procedures listed within the range statement relative to the work orientation. All communications should use appropriate trade terminology where required.

(1) Critical Aspects of Evidence This unit should be assessed in conjunction with other specialisation or core units and not in isolation. The assessment should be linked with performance of normal workplace activities where the competency covered by this unit is demonstrated concurrently with other core or elective competencies. The communication tasks may be related to any aspect of the job, interacting with team members, receiving instructions, reporting and any other activity that requires communication with individuals or groups. During assessment the individual will:


safe and efficient working environment use accepted traditional boatbuilding techniques, practices, processes and workplace

procedures Tasks involved will be completed within reasonable timeframes relating to typical workplace activities.
