Course Description

The main focus of this course is to support students with additional learning needs to meet their individual pathways. This program provides training and skill development required to perform minor maintenance and repair of an automotive vehicle body. The range of technical skills and knowledge is limited. This qualification reflects the role of individuals who perform a limited range of tasks relating to identifying and inspecting mechanical and electrical components and systems of light vehicles, heavy vehicles, outdoor power equipment, bicycles, marine craft and motorcycles.

Career Pathways

This program will prepare students with a solid foundation of practical skills required to successfully gain an apprenticeship in the automotive industry within the automotive repair, service and retail sectors. School-based new apprenticeships may also be available in addition to entry level employment. The qualification offers a number of pre-vocational outcomes that provide credit into apprenticeship qualifications.

Program Requirements

Additional Costs: Protective clothing and minor equipment may also need to be purchased.
