NCC Tutor is a suite of educational modules designed for educators and students.
The modules reflect NCC content in many units of competency for Construction, Plumbing and Services, and Property Services training packages at the Diploma and Certificate IV level.
The modules cover 2 key learning areas:
- Understanding – core modules explaining fundamental concepts about the NCC that are essential to understanding other modules.
- Using – practical modules on how to use a particular volume to locate, interpret and apply different requirements.
NCC Tutor is available in 2 formats
Presentations for educators
Each module consists of a PowerPoint presentation with activities and detailed facilitator notes to help create interesting and interactive lessons, suitable for both classroom and online delivery.
If you’re an educator for an RTO, TAFE or university, this resource is a great way to encourage your students to review, discuss and apply their knowledge of the NCC.
You can submit an online enquiry to request access to the modules. Please select ‘General’ then ‘Resource’ and include confirmation that you are an educator, the name of your RTO/TAFE/university and reference to NCC Tutor in your enquiry.
