Heavy Equipment and Metal Trades (Top End)

The Heavy Equipment and Metal Trades (Top End) team delivers the skills required for employment in the fitting and machining trade or the metal fabrication and welding trades.

Completion of the programs offered by this team will allow employment as engineering tradespersons in industries such as manufacturing, maintenance, repairs and welding. Additionally there will be opportunities for employment in the sheetmetal fields such as general fabrication, stainless steel and/or aluminium welding, fabrication industries/construction sites and the oil and gas industries.

The team delivers training at the Casuarina campus and in regional and remote centres and communities, as well as training to high school students who are participating in a Vocational Education Training in Schools (VETis) and students in pre-employment programs at the certificate I and certificate II in Engineering. These programs improve the student’s skills and employment opportunities in the engineering/metal industry.

Additionally the team delivers training in regional and remote communities to allow communities to construct and repair their own facilities and generate employment opportunities.

The team also delivers welding courses in the evenings for various welding certificates such as the structural welding certificate and international welding practitioner.
