Photo Imaging Standards

National Occupational Standards (Standards) provide a clear, up to date description of what an individual needs to be able do in order to perform a job successfully. They consist of a detailed breakdown of the tasks, knowledge and skills needed for effective performance within a job role, including any statutory or legal responsibilities.  The Standards have been developed over a number of years by both people who work in the industry and experts from each occupational area through a process of investigation, analysis and consultation with a wide range of people.



Functional Map

A functional map sets out a framework from which national occupational standards will be drawn and developed.  They are NOT the occupational standards themselves.




It is also important to bear in mind that, functional maps should cover functions not job roles and are appropriate to all sizes of organisation.
