Mechanical Pre-Apprentices and Para-Professional Engineers

Graduates of the pre-apprenticeship training are equipped with the skills to seek apprenticeships in mechanical trades such as Fitter and Turner, Maintenance Fitter, Toolmaker, Machinist, CAD Drafter, and CNC Operator.
Graduates of the higher level courses can enter into career paths in process plant drafting, industrial automation and robotics, computer aided or manual drafting, plant maintenance supervision, general engineering and technical positions (such as research and laboratory assistants, technical inspectors, and quality control specialists).

Courses which are accredited meet the national standards as set down by the National Training Framework (NTF), the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF) and National quality assurance requirements such as the Australian Quality Training Framework (AQTF). The courses are recognised throughout Australia and once you have finished your studies, by completing the relevant core and elective subjects, your efforts are recognised by achieving a qualification and receiving a formal parchment. Assessment is often conducted in real or simulated work places which measure your ability to perform competently in job focused outcomes.
