Course Structure

Advanced Diploma of Engineering Technology To fulfil the requirements for the qualification learners must satisfy the following requirements. Non-trade entry: Select from Table A: Units of competency equivalent to a training effort of at least 200 hours. It is strongly recommended that the selection include MEM13014AApply principles of occupational health & safety in work environment. Select from Table B: Units of competency equivalent to a training effort of at least 1200 hours. Selection must be based on the following principles: 1. A minimum of 80% of the training effort must be from units listed in Table B. The balance may be drawn from other endorsed training packages provided the units of competency are of an appropriate AQF level and relevant to an engineering job function or to enterprise requirements. 2. At least 30% of the training effort must be from units of competency at AQF level 6. Trade entry: Select from Table B: Units of competency equivalent to a training effort of at least 1200 hours. Selection must be based on the following principles: 1. A minimum of 80% of the training effort must be from units listed in Table B. The balance may be drawn from other endorsed training packages provided the units of competency are of an appropriate AQF level and relevant to an engineering job function or to enterprise requirements. 2.
