Units include: Working safely in an engineering environment Working efficiently and effectively in engineering Using and communicating technical information Using MMA/MIG welding Hand forging engineering materials Producing mechanical engineering drawings using CAD Cutting and shaping materials using thermal cutting equipment

Each unit of study contains a list of tasks or competencies that have to be successfully completed to the required standard. These tasks can be assessed in a number of different ways such as being observed by a qualified assessor or checked via relevant written work in a logbook. You will complete a substantial portfolio of evidence of work during the course that will consist of exercises, logbook entries and photographic evidence.
