HOW TO USE THE MODULE /elcom /elcomee to the Module Module !Configuring Computer System and Netorks" . This module contains training materials and actiities for !ou to com*lete. The unit of com*etenc! !Configure Computer System and Netorks" contains %nowledge0 s%ills and attitudes reuired for a Computer Hardware Servicing NC II course. ou are reuired to go through a series of learning actiities in order to com*lete each of the learning outcomes of the module. In each learning outcome there are Information Sheets, Operation Sheets, o! Sheet and A"ti#it$ Sheets. 3ollow these actiities on !our own and answer the Self4$hec% at the end of each learning actiit!. If !ou hae uestions0 don5t hesitate to as% !our teacher for assistance.

If !ou hae a ualification or $ertificate of $om*etenc! from *reious trainings show it to !our teacher. If the s%ills !ou acuired are still current and releant to this module0 the! ma! 6ecome *art of the eidence !ou can *resent for :PL. If !ou !ou are not sure a6out the currenc! of !our s%ills0 discuss it with !our teacher. After com*leting this module as% !our teacher to assess !our com*etenc!. :esult of !our assessment will will 6e record recorded ed in !our !our com*et com*etenc! enc! *rofile *rofile.. All the learning learning actiitie actiitiess are designed designed for !ou to com*lete at !our own *ace.
