Course Outline

Practicals

Overview

Practical sessions form a core part of this course, allowing learners to apply packing and labelling techniques under supervision. They reinforce theoretical knowledge and develop hands-on skills required for workplace compliance and safety.

Practical Activities

• Packing Techniques Practice — Learners pack various break bulk items (bags, drums, pallets) using appropriate materials and methods, ensuring stability and load security. (6h)
• Labelling Exercise — Learners create and apply compliant labels for dangerous goods and general cargo, including hazard pictograms and handling instructions. (4h)
• Integrated Packing and Labelling Simulation — In a simulated warehouse scenario, learners receive a mixed order, pack and label each item, and perform a final quality check before dispatch. (6h)

Summatives

Each delegate is assessed continuously throughout the course via daily exercises, scored practical assignments, and a final summative test at the end.

Practical Assignments — 30%

Practical assignments are observed and scored against a rubric during the practical sessions. Each delegate's practical mark is averaged into a single 100% score and contributes 30% to the final total.

Daily Exercises — 20%

Every training day ends with a multiple-choice exercise scored out of 100%. The scores from each daily exercise are averaged across the duration of the course to produce a Daily Average mark, which contributes 20% to the final total.

Final Test — 50%

On the last day a final summative test is written. It is a multiple-choice paper with multiple-answer questions: each question may have more than one correct option, and a single wrong selection on a question marks the entire question wrong — no partial credit. The final test is scored out of 100% and contributes 50% to the overall mark.
