Employability and Vehicle Documentation
This domain covers employability skills and vehicle documentation: résumés, interviews, workplace communication, job cards, invoices, registration certificate, insurance, pollution certificate, driving licence, permits, fitness and transfer of ownership. The exam tests both soft skills and legal paperwork.
Core rules
A résumé should be concise, truthful and matched to the job. In an interview, listen, answer with evidence and ask relevant questions. At work, use clear communication, follow instructions and record work on the job card. The registration certificate identifies the vehicle and owner; insurance must be valid; a pollution-under-control certificate is required for registered vehicles; the driver must hold the correct licence. Commercial vehicles need permits and fitness certificates. Transfer of ownership must be applied for within the specified period, commonly 14 days, with the required forms and fees.
Worked example
A customer buys a used motorcycle. The seller hands over the registration certificate, insurance and a signed Form 29 and Form 30. The buyer must apply for transfer of ownership at the registering authority within 14 days, submit the forms, original registration certificate, valid insurance, address proof and fees, and obtain the updated registration certificate. Until transfer is recorded, the seller remains the registered owner, which creates legal risk for both parties.
Traps
Relying on an expired pollution certificate or insurance; submitting photocopies where originals are required; failing to sign and close the job card; and promising a delivery date before parts availability is confirmed. Keep copies of all documents.
