10809NAT – Course in Electrician – Minimum Australian Context Gap

NAT 10809 Course in Electrician Minimum Australian Context Gap training course.

Overseas trained Electricians that hold a current Overseas Technical Skills Record (OTSR) are best placed to enter this course. The trade interview and skills test usually done through VETASSESS or Futureskills. They will hold a provisional License and are registered on Exemplar Profiling system to record their hours of work in Australia to build a record of 12-months work experience. Electricians that have already been working in Australia for 12 months can also fill out a detailed Previous Work Record (PWR) that can suffice.

STC is running a blended course online and face to face that will require a commitment to study, attending training, and practical sessions. The theory component of the units will be delivered online, each student will follow them at his/her own pace and there will be online weekly catch-up Zoom sessions with the trainer to address all the inquires that might arise for this. The students will need to come to our 55 Stanley Rd.  Ingleburn NSW 2565 campus for block assessment to complete the practical component of the units. The estimated completion time is 6-8 months depending on the student’s commitment.
