Description
This course is designed to train students in light vehicle mechanics to develop their skills. Students will acquire knowledge on developing and documenting specifications and procedures, and preparation of technical reports. This course will help you develop your skills in management of complex customer issues, analysis and evaluation of electrical and electronic faults in engine, fuel, safety, convenience and entertainment systems.
This qualification covers the skills and knowledge required to diagnose, analyse, evaluate, design and modify automotive electrical and mechanical systems. It is suitable for those working in the automotive service and repair industry at the forefront of the implementation of new technologies.
Entry Requirements
Duration
Total duration for this qualification is 37 weeks of full time study including breaks. Students study 20 hours per week face to face. Delivery and assessment takes place in fully equipped classrooms and an in-house workshop. Students need to gain competency in 12 units (1 core unit and 11 elective units) to successfully complete this course
Fees
Course fee and itemized fee details are available on http://acumen.edu.au/fees-and-charges/ Payment plan option is available to students.
Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL)
Learners with prior learning and work experience can apply for Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL). Learners who have completed corresponding units of competency and/or units contained within the packaging rules can apply for Credit Transfer.
Assessment Methods
Assessment is structured throughout the course. If learners are unable to achieve competency, additional support is provided through mentoring and access to re-assessment as outlined in the acumen’s policies and procedures. Learners who are working in an appropriate automotive mechanical related environment are able to base relevant assessment tasks on their workplace. This will be negotiated between the learner and the assessor. Assessment requires achievement across all tasks to demonstrate competence.
Assessment is carried out through a range of tasks like observations and written assessments
