Our qualifications and courses are from the Australian Quality Framework Chemical, Hydrocarbons and Oil Ref ining Training Package (PMA) and was recently revised. It establishes nationally-recognised, industry skills standards. Training is delivered at Munster Campus for those new to the industry. School based and mature age trainees commence at Certificate II level. We also deliver training off-campus, consistent with individual workplace procedures, for students already in the industry. Training is competency-based, requiring students to complete practical assessments in the workplace with a qualified workplace assessor.
