MEM31922 - Certificate IIl in Engineering - Fabrication Trade

Mapping

Supersedes and is equivalent to MEM30319 - Certificate III in Engineering - Fabrication Trade

Qualification Description

This qualification defines the skills and knowledge required of an Engineering Tradesperson - Fabrication within metal, engineering, manufacturing and associated industries. The qualification has been specifically developed to meet the needs of apprentices in the above trade. This qualification must be undertaken through a Training Contract or through formal trade recognition assessment processes. The skills associated with this qualification are intended to apply to a wide range of fabrication work, including undertaking metal fabrication, structural steel erection, sheetmetal work, welding, blacksmithing and surface finishing. This qualification is designed to provide an industry recognised skills profile related to trade work as an Engineering Tradesperson - Fabrication. Assessment of some units of competency must, where indicated, include evidence of the candidate’s performance in a functioning workplace where there is a sufficient range of appropriate tasks and materials to cover the scope of application of those units. All outcomes must reflect the standard of performance inherent in the job. In some jurisdictions, units in this qualification may relate to licensing or regulatory requirements. Licensing and regulatory information is included in the relevant units of competency. No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this qualification at the time of publication. Local regulations should be checked.

Package Rules

To achieve this qualification, competency must be demonstrated in:

  • 18 units of competency:
  • 12 core units
  • 6 elective units.

For the elective units:

  • a minimum of four units must be selected from Group A
  • the remaining two units can be selected from Group A and/or Group B or from any currently endorsed Training Package or accredited course as long as they contribute to a valid, industry-supported vocational outcome and maintain the integrity of the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF) level of this qualification.

 

Prerequisite units  

An asterisk (*) against a unit code below indicates that there is a prerequisite requirement that must be met. Prerequisite units must be assessed before assessment of any unit of competency with an asterisk. Check the unit of competency for information on specific prerequisite requirements. All prerequisite requirements are packaged in the qualification.
