Description

This qualification covers competencies to design and validate/evaluate coal mining electrical equipment and systems, manage risk, estimate and manage projects and provide technical advice/sales.
It develops competencies in the ethical and responsible application of mathematics, science, engineering techniques, standards and codes of practice, engineering design practices, supervision and management of physical, human and financial resources in engineering.
The core competencies of this qualification meet the prescribed requirements for Engineering Associate membership of Engineers Australia.
Participants seeking Engineers Australia membership should ensure that their training provider is accredited by that body to provide Engineering Education Programs at the level of Engineering Associate.
No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this qualification at the time of publication.

Schedule
Packaging Rules
A total of 1320 weighting points comprising:
- 1000 core weighting points listed below; plus
- 320 general elective weighting points from the general elective units listed below.

Choose a total of 320 weighting points elective units from the list below, of which between 0 and 160 weighting points can be taken from Group A; between 0 and 60 weighting points can be taken from Group B; between 0 and 100 weighting points can be taken from Group C; between 0 and 60 weighting points can be taken from Group D; and between 160 and 320 weighting points can be taken from Group E (or all 320 elective weighting points can be taken from Group E).

Up to 160 weighting points of the general elective units Group A , may be selected, with appropriate contextualisation, from any relevant nationally endorsed Training Package or accredited course, provided selected units contribute to the vocational outcome of the qualification. Previously assigned weighting points are listed in the UEE Electrotechnology Training Package Companion Volume Implementation Guide (CVIG), if not listed weighting points will be 10 points, unless directed from the Electrotechnology Industry Reference Committee (IRC).

There are units of competency within this qualification that contain pre-requisites. Units of competency that have a pre-requisite requirement are identified by this symbol *. Refer directly to the units of competency to identify pre-requisite requirements to ensure all are complied with. A list of all pre-requisites is also provided in the UEE Pre-requisite Companion Volume.

Where imported units are selected, care must be taken to ensure all pre-requisite units specified are complied with.
