The Certificate III in Electrical Fitting is the prerequisite for eligibility of the Energy Safe Victoria Electrical Fitter's Licence and provides the background knowledge and skills required for successful work in the electrical manufacturing industry.
Course structure
Note: This program has been replaced by UEE33020 Certificate III in Electrical Fitting as of 4th October 2020. An extended transition period until the 4/10/2022 applies to this program to enable current students to complete their study. If required, enrolment in this program will be transitioned into the replacement qualification.
To successfully achieve this qualification, students must complete a series of units and demonstrate competence in the skills involved. Upon completion of these units, students will have achieved the core competencies required. Additional elective competencies must also be completed, with these to be determined in negotiation between the apprentice and their employer. Completion of the core and elective competencies will qualify students for the UEE33011 Certificate III in Electrical Fitting
ASSESSMENT
Assessments are designed to provide learners with opportunities to demonstrate they have attained the required skills and knowledge using a range of practically based activities and tasks, as required by recognised standards.
