22614VIC Certificate II in Building & Construction

his comprehensive course covers all aspects and is the perfect starting point for a career in the building and construction industry. Our pre-apprenticeship course specializes in, covering all skills and knowledge required for domestic building, at the entry level, including all the tools and equipment used by apprentices.

Apprentices are the key players in construction – they’re the first on site, and the last to leave.

While apprentices have their specific skills and tasks to perform in the building process, apprentices must have knowledge of all other trades, as an apprentice’s work often accommodates the other trades who follow them.

The course involves face-to-face theory classes and practical skills training in our simulated practical workshop area on campus, and for the work simulations carried out on campus in the workshop, you will require work wear, work boots, and clear safety glasses.

Frontier Training and Technology affirms that the training and assessment of all units of competency of this qualification will be delivered in a real or a very closely simulated workplace environment.

Applicants must:

• To be eligible, students must be at least 16 years of age.
• Frontier recommends learners have a minimum of Year 10 level English and Mathematics.

Pre Training Review (PTR)

A pre-training interview will be conducted with the applicant by a Frontier representative.
