International: $17,995.00
International course
Careers: Mechanical Engineering Trades Worker
Outcome: Certificate IV
This course has twice yearly intakes - the next intake will be January 2015.
Course details
This qualification covers the skills and knowledge required for employment as a Higher Engineering Tradesperson
or a Special Class Engineering Tradesperson - Level II within the metal, engineering, manufacturing and associated
industries or at equivalent levels in other industries where Engineering Tradespersons work.
There are opportunities to work in the manufacture of heavy machinery and building construction products. You can
also work in mineral exploration and mining, or oil and gas drilling.
Topics:
Perform sheet and plate assembly
Apply principles of occupational health and safety
Assemble fabricated components
Assist in the provision of on the job training
Interpret technical drawing
Perform advanced manual thermal cutting, gouging and shaping
Perform advanced welding using gas metal arc welding process
Perform advanced welding using manual metal arc welding process
Perform routine gas tungsten arc welding
Perform routine manual metal arc welding and oxy acetylene welding
Perform welds to code standards using gas metal arc welding process
Weld using flux core, gas metal, gas tungsten and manual metal arc welding process
Work with others in a manufacturing, engineering or related environment.
Career prospects:
Graduates will be able to apply for trade recognition as a Special Class Engineering Tradesperson in Australia.
Most Special Class Engineering Tradespersons work in the manufacturing, construction and mining industries.
However, there is currently a high demand for these trades people in the oil and gas industry. Shortages for
qualified tradespersons exist nationally and, there will be a high level of activity in those industries that
employ tradespersons for several years.
The qualification is nationally recognised. After attainment of Certificate IV, students can assume higher levels of
study through the Diploma which opens up employment opportunities related to workshop supervisory, and
management type positions.
Hours of study:
The course is delivered using a combination of face-to-face classroom instruction, simulated learning environment
and compulsory vocational placement. The course is offered full-time over 2 years at Ashmore.
Teaching-learning resources include: study guides, journals, textbooks, CDs, and DVDs.
Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) provides students an opportunity to have their current skills and
competencies recognised. These skills and competencies may relate to units you are about to commence and as
a result can exempt you from studying these units. However, there is a cost related to obtaining Recognition of
Prior Learning. The process requires students to gather evidence confirming their competency. A content specialist
will advise you in this task. Enquire if you think you qualify. If the education provider grants an overseas student
RPL, it may impact on student visa conditions through a shortening of the student's course. For further details
regarding entry requirements, please contact the International Student Centre on (+617) 5581 8398.
Vocational Placement
TAFE Queensland Gold Coast coordinates and sources vocational placement. The vocational placement
component of the qualification will be offered at small, medium and large organisations on the Gold Coast.
Assessment methods and tools include: oral tasks (interview questions), written tasks (workbook, recognition of
prior learning, tests, assignments, examinations), group work and discussions (case studies, role plays), project
(workplace research project), and simulated or workplace performance (practical demonstration with observation
checklists). Assessment results recognise student achievement against each competency.
Resources required:
Included in the course fees are all learning materials (protective gear, Study Guide, assessment requirements,
handouts, online resource lists, vocational placement diary/work book), and all material necessary to complete the
qualification. Students need to have the following required stationery (calculator, metric tape measure, pencils,
pens, paper, plastic sleeves for notes). Students need to have access to a computer, the Internet, and a personal
email account.
The Institute will provide access to:
Computers - Windows 7, Internet Explorer 8, Microsoft Office Professional 2010, job-related software for
teaching-learning, computer disk drive, and USB ports
Learning environment: classrooms, tables, chairs, whiteboards, overhead projectors, flip sheets, TV/video
recorder.
Course CRICOS code:
The CRICOS code for this course is 065774E
