Qualification: Certificate III (AQF)
Training Package: UEE06 Electrotechnology Training Package
TAFE Course No: 9078
This course is for refrigeration and air conditioning apprentices and others employed in the industry. You will learn to select, install, commission, maintain, fault-find and repair refrigeration and air conditioning components and systems in domestic, commercial and/or industrial applications. This qualification meets the NSW Office of Fair Trading's licensing requirements for issuing "Qualified Supervisor's Certificate - Refrigeration and/or Air Conditioning". This permits the holder to work unsupervised on refrigeration and/or air conditioning systems and associated electrical work. It also meets the federal Ozone Protection and Synthetic Greenhouse Gas Management Regulations 1995 and its 2005 Amendment requirements for the Full Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Licence, which is required to handle a refrigerant for any work in the refrigeration and industry, other than automotive industry.
Career Opportunities: Refrigeration and air conditioning mechanic.
Articulation: When you finish this course you can apply for advanced standing in the proposed Certifcate IV in Refrigeration and Air Conditioning qualifications in the Electrotechnology Training Package.
Entry Requirements: Learners must either be in relevant employment or have access to appropriate workplace environments to achieve the completion requirements of this course. There are no formal educational requirements for entry to this course, however the Electrotechnology Training Package states that a prospective learner's general education and competency level should be equivalent to the outcome of four to five years of secondary school.
