The minimum requirements for achievement of the Certificate III in Engineering - Technical are:
completion of the three (3) core units of competency listed below, and
completion of seven (7) elective units of competency from the list below to bring the total of units selected to ten (10).
Note that when selecting elective units any prerequisite units must also be completed and can be counted towards the required number of elective units (refer to units and prerequisites listing in Appendix 2).
Note also that additional requirements apply to the selection of non-destructive testing units. These additional requirements are listed at the end of the elective units.
Up to two (2) appropriate electives may be chosen from other endorsed Training Packages and accredited courses where those units are available in a Certificate III. Note that the elective units listed below include all of the units that are approved for selection from the MEM05 Training Package for use in this qualification. This meets the NQC requirement that one sixth of the total units must be able to be selected from other qualifications in the same Training Package.
