Are you looking for career in electronics?
North Metropolitan TAFE is offering the Certificate II in Computer Assembly and Repair. This course can be completed in just six months, opening doors to a range of further study and employment opportunities.
In this course you will develop the ability to select components and assemble computers to customer specifications. You will also learn how to carry out routine hardware repairs (generally by replacement) of known faulty components.
Successful completion of this course could lead to an apprenticeship or employment as a technician’s trade assistant in a wide variety of fields such as computer assembly and servicing, refrigeration and air conditioning, telecommunications, and security and fire alarms. Many employers regard basic training in electrical/electronic theory as a pre-requisite to employment.
This course provides an entry point into the electronics, robotics, and electrical industries. It can also prepare you for further study in areas such as robotics or electronics and communications.
You will need to have some maths ability, particularly in relation to Ohm’s Law, and be motivated to complete the course in a short timeframe.
Many of the subjects in this fast-track program will also contribute towards units in the Certificate II Electrotechnology (Career Start).
- Basic DC circuit theory
- Practical skills for the assembly, installation, repair and re-assembly of electronic and computer equipment
- A custom blend of DC circuit theory and mathematical skills
- Electronic component identification and handling procedures
- Hand soldering, component placement and mounting onto a printed wiring board
I have the following attributes:
- Good communication skills
- A logical approach to problem solving
- Able to work both independently and as part of a team
- An interest in electronics and computers
