standards.
  Skills Objectives are of a more practical nature, are
categorised according to Rating function, and constitute field
training exit standards, the functionally relevant parts of which
must be met prior to Rating/Endorsement examinations and
assessments
 'Functionally relevant' in this context relates to Rating functions and means that an individual being 'stream-trained' for — for example, Aerodrome Control, is required to have satisfactorily completed:
  the theory component of the training course (comprising
Learning Objectives), and
  as a minimum, the Skills Objectives for Aerodrome Control,
 before commencing the Rating and Endorsement examinations and assessment procedure.

4.1.4                     Training Standards

4.1.4.1                Learning Objectives are to be met by an appropriate and validated assessment process that may include written examinations, assignments or projects. The aggregate pass standard must be 70 percent for every pre-rating component of the training course.

4.1.4.2                Skills Objectives are to be met by a training assessment process in either a field or simulated field environment. Individual achievements against these objectives must be determined by an appropriate person holding an Assessor qualification.

4.1.4.3                Written Examinations must be conducted under supervision and without reference to any documents, maps, charts or other material except where required and specified for individual questions.

4.1.5                     Knowledge and Skills Objectives

4.1.5.1                The following tables contain the generic knowledge and specific skills objectives and required level of understanding relevant to the different ratings:

Note:
 In this chapter, the level numbers associated with Level of Knowledge or Performance Level denote the following:
 1. Level 4:
 "A thorough knowledge of the subject and the ability to apply it with speed and accuracy."
 2. Level 5:
 "Extensive knowledge of the subject and the ability to apply procedures derived from it with judgement in the light of the circumstances."
