Course Description
This qualification provides grounding in safety and basic skills and knowledge for work in any Electrotechnology discipline. It comprises classroom based study and workshop activities, as well as one major written project.
This Certificate is completed over two years, as Stage 1 and Stage 2. It is anticipated Year 11 students would complete Stage 1 and continue with Stage 2 in Year 12. Once both years are complete students will receive a Certificate II in Electrotechnology (Career Start).
If Stage 1 is complete and the student does not wish to continue into Stage 2 they will receive a Statement of Attainment for Stage 1. Year 12 students are able to complete Stage 1 and receive a Statement of Attainment at the end of the year, however, they will not be able to participate in Stage 2 unless they are still enrolled at school, i.e., Year 13.
