Qualification Description
This qualification defines the skills and knowledge required of a detail draftsperson producing specialist engineering drawings within metal, engineering, manufacturing and associated industries.
The skills associated with this qualification are intended to apply to the production of engineering detail drawings as applied in manufacturing, engineering and related industry sectors and is intended to be packaged to meet the specific needs of drafting in mechanical and machine construction and maintenance, steel fabrication, other fabrication services and assembly, mechanical services, electrical services, fluid power, piping assembly and related industrial applications.
This qualification should not be used for VET in Schools unless the students are formally engaged in a traineeship in accordance with the Australian Apprenticeships policy.
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
The requirement for achievement of the MEM40422 Certificate IV in Engineering Drafting is the achievement of competence in fifteen (15) units of competency made up of:
- all four (4) core units of competency listed below and
- a minimum of eight (8) units from Group A and
- the balance of units may be chosen from Group A or Group B to bring the total number of elective units to eleven (11) as described below.
A maximum of two (2) Group B elective units, that are relevant to work as engineering detail draftsperson within metal, engineering, manufacturing and associated industries and do not duplicate skills and knowledge already available in units within this qualification, may be chosen from this Training Package, other endorsed Training Packages and accredited courses where those units are available for inclusion at Certificate III or IV.
No other descriptor can be used.
