Packaging Rules

A total of 440 weighting points comprising: 260 core weighting points listed below; plus 180 general elective weighting points from the general elective units listed below. Choose a total of 180 weighting points elective units from the list below, of which between 0 and 90 weighting points can be taken from Group A; between 0 and 90 weighting points can be taken from Group B; and between 90 and 180 weighting points can be taken from Group C (or all electives units of 180 weighting points can be taken from Group C). Up to 90 weighting points of the general elective units Group A, may be selected, with appropriate contextualisation, from any relevant nationally endorsed Training Package or accredited course, provided that selected units contribute to the vocational outcome of the qualification. Previously assigned weighting points are listed in the UEE Electrotechnology Training Package Companion Volume Implementation Guide (CVIG), if not listed weighting points will be 10 points, unless directed from the Electrotechnology Industry Reference Committee (IRC). There are units of competency within this qualification that contain pre-requisites. Units of competency that have a pre-requisite requirement are identified by this symbol *. Refer directly to the units of competency to identify pre-requisite requirements to ensure all are complied with. A list of all pre-requisites is also provided in the UEE Pre-requisite Companion Volume. Where imported units are selected, care must be taken to ensure all pre-requisite units specified are complied with.
