The course, in line with industry procedures and workplace practices, allows participants to experience control room scenarios and hands-on in-the-field switching operations, and aims to:
The simulated switching scenarios will provide active test points and accurate responses from equipment, enabling participants to effectively carry out switching programs and scenarios set by the instructor. Participants will use a wide range of equipment within supervised scenarios providing real-world switching experience and exposure.
Applicants typically must hold a Certificate III in Electrotechnology Electrician (Electrical Licence or equivalent) to be eligible to receive a Statement of Attainment for all units delivered. Non-Electricians would receive eight out of the total 12 units on their Statement of Attainment.
Participants are required to wear fully enclosed shoes at all times in the CET buildings.
Safety boots, long cotton trousers, long-sleeved cotton shirts and safety glasses will be required for the practical switching scenario on the final day of the course.

Graduates holding a current WA Unrestricted Electrician’s Licence or equivalent issued in an Australian State or Territory will be issued by Coex Training (RTO code 41119) with a Statement of Attainment for each UET and UEP unit of competency completed.
All graduates, including non-electricians, successfully completing the course will be eligible to receive all the UEPOPS units of competency and;
The Coex Skills Recognition process benefits applicants who have undergone prior learning and recognises competencies obtained outside a formal educational or training environment, gained through life or work experience. Competencies currently held by applicants will be formally assessed against each applicable Unit of Competency and may be recognised regardless of how, when and where they were achieved. Skills Recognition is an assessment process and a cost recovery charge will apply.
Coex accepts and provides credit to learners for units of competency and/or modules (unless licensing or regulatory requirements prevent this) where these are evidenced by either AQF certification documentation issued by any other RTO or AQF authorised issuing organisation or an authenticated VET transcript issued by the Registrar.
