Modification History

Release 1. New qualification. Content from Certificate III in Engineering – Fabrication Trade utilised to develop individualised qualification.

Qualification Description

This qualification defines the skills and knowledge required of an Engineering Tradesperson - Patternmaking within the metal, engineering, manufacturing and associated industries.

The skills associated with this qualification are intended to apply to a wide range of patternmaking work including constructing full-size engineering model out of timber. Patternmakers also produce visual models, experimental models and models for the manufacture of prototype developmental products

This qualification is designed to provide an industry recognised skills profile related to work as a patternmaker. Skills development should be undertaken through an Australian Apprenticeship arrangement where the mix of on and off-the-job training would be specified in the Training Plan associated with the Contract of Training between the employer and apprentice.

Assessment of some units of competency must, where indicated, include evidence of the candidate's performance in a functioning workplace where there is a sufficient range of appropriate tasks and materials to cover the scope of application of those units. All outcomes must reflect the standard of performance inherent in the job.

In some jurisdictions, units in this qualification may relate to licensing or regulatory requirements. Licensing and regulatory information is included in the relevant units of competency.

No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this qualification at the time of publication. Local regulations should be checked.

Entry Requirements

There are no entry requirements for this qualification.

Packaging Rules

To be awarded MEM31622 Certificate III in Engineering - Patternmaking Trade, units of competency to the value of 108 points must be achieved, chosen as outlined below:

  • all core units of competency listed below (totalling 57 points) and
  • units to a minimum value of 40 points from Group A electives as described below and
  • units to a maximum value of 11 points may be taken from Group B electives to bring the total value to at least 108 points

Appropriate Group B elective units to the value of 8 points may be chosen from other MEM qualifications and other endorsed Training Packages and accredited courses where those units are available for inclusion at Certificate III. Only select units that would be suitable for occupational outcomes in a patternmaking trade environment.

Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) must seek a determination from the industry parties in respect of the allocations of point values for units of competency drawn from other Training Packages or accredited courses. Determination of points requests are to be submitted to the industry parties through Innovation and Business Skills Australia (IBSA) Manufacturing. Refer to the MEM Companion Volume Implementation Guide for information on determination of unit point values.

No other descriptor can be used.
