The UEE22020 Certificate II in Electrotechnology (Career Start) offers secondary school students a chance to develop competencies for a work entry program providing grounding in safety, and basic skills and knowledge for work in any electrotechnology industry.
When undertaking the course, you must be enrolled as a VCE or VCE student.
In addition, learners must be at least 16 years of age when enrolling in the program. This requirement meets the minimum age requirements for training and working in the Electrotechnology field in Victoria, determined by Energy Safe Victoria (ESV).
This course requires at least Year 10 mathematical knowledge, and is not recommended if you find mathematics at this level challenging.
Prior to enrolment or commencement of training you will be required to complete a literacy and numeracy assessment and a pre-training interview. These will assist with determining your suitability to the course, verify your training plan, and identify any learning support needs.
Note: During this course, you are required to provide overalls, work boots and clear safety classes.
This is a pre-vocational electrical program, designed to provide an introduction to the electrical/electronics industries in areas such as air-conditioning, electrical, refrigeration, or instrumentation.
This is a VET Delivered to Secondary Students course and can be completed as part of your VCE/VET/VCE_VM program.
It enables you to develop broad based competencies in a range of electrotechnology fields such as lighting, general power, fire protection and security, robotics, instrumentation, optical data and voice systems, electrical motors and control systems.
It also enables you to make more informed choices in the selection of vocational career paths, and gain a recognised credential and credits for further training as an apprentice or trainee in the electrotechnology industry.
Note: If not undertaking this course as a VCE or VCE_VM student, please refer to our full-time pre-apprenticeship program UEE22020 Certificate II in Electrotechnology (Career Start) - Pre-Apprenticeship
