Competency based training for electrical and instrumentation workers and engineers.
Who is this course for
This course is for anyone involved in the “hands-on” side of hazardous area electrical work, i.e. the installation, maintenance or inspection of hazardous area electrical equipment. Electricians and instrument technicians are the most common attendees, but we also train electrical engineers who perform inspections as part of their role. The course covers the theory and practice of field work in hazardous areas.
Entry Requirements
The course is post-trade training, so we usually require a current electrical license (any Australian state or territory) or instrumentation trade certificate for course entry. Electrical engineers meet the unit pre-requisites for award of the inspection related units only (marked * in the unit table below). If you have other qualifications or you’re unsure please just give us a call, we may still be able to help.
Duration and Delivery
The course is 5-days duration. You can attend one of our public programs, or we can run a program on site for 8 or more people.
The course is also available online, via a combination of instructor led and self-paced sessions. Click here for more details.
