  What is a Boilerplate?

Boilerplate is used to give trainers and learners further instructions about Assessments and the learner’s completion of a Unit of Competency.

Standard Catapult units have various default boilerplates for use within a Unit of Competency. Each type of assessment has its own specific boilerplate. Organisations can use the standard default boilerplate or create their own.

A Boilerplate can be created and used for specific units or across multiple units within an organisation.

See below for an overview of how to use the boilerplate.

Creating a New Boilerplate

  1. From the Edify organisation home page, click Administration → Boilerplate in the dropdown menu at the top. This will load a list of all boilerplate text used in the organisation.

Also, the title of Default boilerplate cannot be changed.
