Distance Learning

The focus of the distance learning option is for self paced learning in the comfort of your own surrounds. It is designed for existing trade contractors wanting to take the next step and become a licensed building contractor. No prior knowledge of the management and supervisory requirements in the building of residential and low-rise commercial projects is necessary.

The assessment will cover the key theory and practical areas related to the construction and management of residential and commercial low-rise building work. At the completion of the course you will have gained the knowledge required to successfully build and project manage both residential and low rise commercial building works.

Core Industry Training has clustered some of the units of competency into groups to enable a more holistic delivery and assessment process. This is because certain units of competency have overlapping knowledge and skill requirements. The clustering of units also enables the course to be completed in a shorter timeframe.

Pre-requisite

To enrol you should possess an adequate level of language, literacy and numeracy skills sufficient enough to read and interpret building plans, specifications, contracts, codes and standards.

Assessment

You will be issued with workbooks for each clustered group of units of competency. There are ten workbooks altogether. The workbooks contain a series of assessment questions based on the respective topic(s), a practical assessment task and detailed instructions as to how they are to be completed. One workbook will be issued at a time.

You will also receive a copy of the resource booklet for the completing of all practical assessments and all necessary learning materials and resources to assist you through the course. You will also have access to you own designated trainer/assessor to support and answer any questions you may have about the course.

Once a workbook is completed and returned, the next one will be delivered to you.

Timeframe

The course is to be completed within twelve months of enrolling (or earlier, depending on how quickly you can complete and return the workbooks). This means that you have five weeks to complete and return the respective group assessment workbooks for reviewing.

Fees and charges

The cost of the Distance Learning program is from $2,700.
