OPITO GLOBAL TRAINING STANDARD
Scope
S1
Basic electronics in an
engineering context
Assessment
Assessment approaches
Evidence requirements
Scope Criteria
Candidate evidence must cover the following scope:
 electrical conductivity
 Ohm’s Law
 parallel and series electrical circuits, AC generation
 basic electronics, diodes and diode application, transistors and thyristors,
electronic circuits
Assessment Guidance
 Assessment of knowledge and understanding will typically comprise of a
series of simple, straightforward questions - examples include short
answer questions, completion questions, matching questions, multiple
choice questions, partly completed diagrams and calculations.
Assessments must be conducted in supervised, closed-book conditions.
Candidates will not be allowed to bring their own notes, handouts,
textbooks or other materials into the assessment.
 If oral questions are used, a record of the questions, equipment and
Candidate responses must be retained.
 The total assessment time for knowledge and understanding would not be
expected to exceed an hour.
 One assessment can be used to assess more than one outcome.
 Assessments can also be combined with other Training Standards where
relevant.
Refer to OPITO Global Technical Qualification Support Guide for Level 1
Training Certificates: Basic Maintenance Practices for more guidance.
Assessment evidence must include:
 record of questions and Candidate responses which demonstrate that all
of the requirements of the Performance Criteria, Knowledge and Scope
have been met
