Conservation and Land Management Workers

Certificates in environmental practices cover the necessary skills and knowledge required for seeking employment as an assistant environmental officer. Employment opportunities will be found in local government; national parks and wildlife reserves; natural resources conservation; transport; waste management; and public housing and works.

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.
