The Certificate I in Sustainable Energy (Electrotechnology) is a UTE99 National Electrotechnology Training Package endorsed Certificate I qualification.
 

The Certificate I in Sustainable Energy qualification and related units of competency, endorsed in December 2002 provides a new pathway into the Electrotechnology Industry.
 

Certificate I in Sustainable Energy (Electrotechnology) qualification demonstrates that the recipient can work to a standard required in the workplace with the ability to work consciously and efficiently to minimise the use of energy directly in the course of their work. At the same time material usage and wastage will be minimised and materials recycled where appropriate. Being energy conscious is a key attribute in that it is transferable to all work functions, increases employability, and equips the learner with the sustainable energy knowledge and skills that apply to existing and new environments.
 

Achievement of the qualification demonstrates a person will have been deemed competent with the requisite knowledge and skills that will lead to full employment or into exciting career paths in Electrotechnology vocations. They will have also improved their prospects of gaining a career in the Sustainable/Renewable Energy sector of the Electrotechnology industry, as they will be able to carry out an array of functions related to their specific levels of performance.
 

Career options in Sustainable/Renewable Energy principals and practices within Electrotechnology vocations generally cover such work as design, research, assemble, install, construct, diagnose, maintain, commission, program, test or repair of; networks, systems, circuits, equipment, components, appliances, facilities and the like. These include a range of Renewable/Sustainable Energy techniques and applications within the Electrotechnology industry that use the medium of electronics, electrical, communications including data and information technology, computer systems, instrumentation, refrigeration, and air conditioning.
 

Career opportunities and paths span from Technical Support; Assembly and Basic Servicing; to Trades; Technicians; or Diploma in Renewable Energy and Advanced Diplomas in Engineering (electrical, electronics, etc.). The Certificate I also confers advanced standing to the Certificate II in Electrotechnology Servicing (Renewable Energy Specialisation) and credit towards a range of other Certificate II and Certificate III vocations in the Electrotechnology Industry.

Training and Assessment Resources


Specific Training and Assessment resources have been developed in addition to the Qualification Structure and Units of Competency. Included below, in this section of the website, to assist RTOs implement the new Certificate I in Sustainable Energy (Electrotechnology) is the following:

Endorsed components:
1. Qualification structure
2. Qualification description
3. Units of Competency
 

Resources and learning strategies:


1. Certificate I in Sustainable Energy (Electrotechnology) Module Map – refer to Module Maps in the Electrotech section of this website
 

2. Knowledge and skills modules (K&SM) – existing national modules used in the program are available under NUE Module Descriptors and/or NMEC NUE Module Descriptors – Electrotech section of this website
 

3. Workperformance Modules (WPMs)

4. Training Record Book - The Training Record Book is an important tool for RTOs and learners. It:

  is a guide for learners, employer(s) and teachers regarding the training requirements for completing the Certificate I program
  is a useful tool for keeping records from the various parts of the training program;
- Work placement details,
- Work site Induction Checklist for Work Placement (where required),
- Work experience (evidence collection) instruments (two options), and
- On-the-Job Supervisor’s Report
  can form an integral part of a VET in Schools program, and can be included as part of the Board of Senior Secondary Studies' assessment processes for the issuance of Year 12 Certificates
  provides the learner, college/school/RTO or employer, contact details in case of an emergency.
