Certificate III in Engineering - Technical
Here's the perfect starting point for a future career in engineering! Learn about technical drawing and computer-aided design systems, and develop an understanding of how drawings are transformed into buildings and manufactured items.
Through this qualification, you will learn engineering theory and participate in hands on workshop projects to develop your skills and knowledge around general engineering concepts.
You'll gain key skills in technical drawing and computer-aided design (CAD) systems, and the projects you complete will help you develop your understanding of how drawings are transformed into buildings and manufactured items.
You'll also learn freehand sketching, 3D modelling, performing computations, applying mathematical techniques in a manufacturing engineering environment, and much more!
Completion of this nationally recognised and accredited qualification can provide credit towards a relevant higher level qualification, should you wish to pursue further study.
