Certificate IV In Engineering
Nationally Recognised Vocational Education and Training (VET)This qualification defines the skills and knowledge required for a higher engineering tradesperson within metal, engineering, manufacturing and associated industries. The qualification covers the skills and knowledge required for employment to a wide range of engineering fields such as refrigeration and air conditioning, casting and moulding, computer numerically controlled (CNC) programming, fluid power, heavy fabrication, instrumentation, maintenance, plant mechanics, marine electronics, mechatronics, patternmaking, robotics, toolmaking, welding and watch and clock services and repair, including post-trade work.
This course is a continuation of a trade course (certificate III) at a higher level. The course will cover higher level post-trade skills such as computer controlled machining or advanced welding, fluid power and AutoCAD.
The qualification has been specifically developed to be delivered to people who are existing engineering tradespersons or delivered to apprentices in an Engineering Trade who choose to study at a higher level during their apprenticeship. The qualification packaging has been developed on an assumption that competency will be developed through an integrated combination of on and off-the-job learning strategies such as those delivered through a formal apprenticeship.
