This level of aggregation of the TPTs looks sustainable.

I think what is interesting about these TPTs (example given belwo) is that they are at a level of aggregation that is meaningful in terms of the work as a whole and are broad enough to cope with change and that they recognise that there is a continuing learning dimension associated with work even after initial training. Presumably similarly generic evidence of achievement can be offered.

27. Maintenance and inspection of aircraft systems

This professional task deals with the periodic maintenance and inspection (e. g. Pre-Flight-Checks and Post-Flight-Checks) of aircrafts. The maintenance manuals (e. g. Aircraft Maintenance Manuel (AMM) or German Air Force Technical Orders (GAFTO)) must be taken into account. When maintaining or inspecting an aircraft, simple malfunctions are repaired. Serious malfunctions are repaired in close cooperation with the respective skilled workers or the concerned aircraft, unit or subsystem got to be transferred for analysis and repair to the respective department. The worker has to add the maintenance or inspection to the documentation system. At the end of this professional task functional tests are performed and the aircraft is enabled for the next flight.
