Description

Scope
This qualification provides competencies to select, install, commission, fault find and maintain electrical and instrumentation equipment in buildings and premises and instrumentation systems and core instrumentation equipment for process and control. It includes ERAC requirements for an ‘Electrician’s licence’.
^ From 1 July 2022 the elective unit HLTAID001 must no longer be delivered and will be replaced in the Packaging Rules by the unit HLTAID009 - for more information see: https://asqa.gov.au/news-events/news/reminder-about-superseded-hlt-first-aid-units

Schedule
Packaging Rules
The requirements for granting this qualification will be met when competency is demonstrated and achieved for:
- Twenty seven (27) core units and
- A combination of elective units to achieve a total weighting of 120 points:
- A maximum of 60 weighting points may be chosen from Group A Imported and Common Elective Units
- A maximum of 60 weighting points may be chosen from Group B Elective Units
- A minimum of 60 to a maximum of 120 weighting points to be chosen from Group C Elective Units

Imported units from other training packages and/or state accredited courses can be added to this group, but they must be selected from qualifications where the unit is first packaged at AQF level 4. If units have not being assigned a weighting by the relevant EE-Oz Industry Technical Advisory Committee, their weighting will be 10 points.

Note:
1. Prerequisite pathways shall be identified and met for all elective units selected.
2. In selecting elective units considerations to career planning advice should be given to units that form part of a prerequisite pathway for the progression to achieve particular competencies or qualification at a higher level.
