Overview

As an electrical engineer, it is vital to understand how to design and maintain electrical equipment that is safe across its lifecycle. 

The short courses in this learning journey have been curated to help you develop your electrical safety, risk management, and technical skills. 

You will also learn best practices for designing wiring and high-voltage substations that comply with Australian standards. 

How does it work?

This learning journey is designed to build on your tenders and bids management skills as you progress through it. Once completed, you'll have the opportunity to apply for a Micro-credential to showcase your newly developed capabilities.

1. Register for each course

To complete the learning journey, you must register for each course separately.

You can lock in your learning by registering for all five courses upfront, or register for each course as you go.

To register for a course, click on the 'Learn more' buttons below.

2. Complete the learning

This includes a mix of self-paced and live-online learning.

There is no set time frame to complete this journey, however we recommend you complete the self-paced courses one-week before the first live-facilitated course.

3. Enrol in the Micro-credentials

Once you have complete all the short courses and started to incorporate your newly developed skills in your practice, you are ready to earn recognition through a Micro-credentials.

Make sure you enrol in the 'Assessment Pathway' on the micro-credential pages.
