Course Overview
This qualification provides competencies to select, install, set up, test, fault find, repair and maintain systems and devices for measurement and recording of physical/chemical phenomenon and related process control. It provides certified electricians with a dual trade in electrical / instrumentation, which is a skill in high demand.

Duration
Our flexible delivery allows students to progress at their own pace, therefore the duration will vary with experience and capabilities of different students.
The recommended duration of this qualification is 213h, for students that need to complete all the 16 core units + 3 elective units that are part of this qualification (7 of the core units are always credit transferred from the Australian Electrical Licence).
Students that have a Cert. IV in Electrical instrumentation (UEE40420 or 40411) are eligible for Credit Transfer for 6 more core units, having to complete only 11 core units + 3 elective units.

Delivery
This course consists of two parts:
- Theory delivery and assessments - The theory delivery and assessments can be done online with trainer support.
- Practical delivery and assessessments - The practial delivery and assessments are to be done on campus.
Contact us to know more about our flexible delivery, Credit Transfers and how we can help you.

Location
Our classes will take place at our Brisbane Campus at Suite 6, 28 Old Cleveland Road, Stones Corner, Brisbane, QLD.
Remote Classes in Sydney take place at 46 Edward Street, Summer Hill (subject to confirmation). 
For other locations, please Contact us. We are available to take our training to where is needed (conditions apply - a minimum number of students is needed for remote classes).
Course Outline
​This course provides comprehensive knowledge and skills in Instrumentation, PID Controlers, HMI's, Control Valves and PLC programming. It is made up of 23 core units and a 3 elective units of competency. from the 23 core units, 7 can be credit transferred from the Australian Electrical Licence (UEE30811 or equivalent), leaving a total of 16 core units and 3 elective units to be completed.For the students that have already completed a Cert. IV in Electrical Instrumentation (UEE40420), 6 more units can be credit transferred, leaving a total of 10 core units and 3 elective units to be completed.
The table below shows the list of units to be completed as part of the Cert. III in Instrumentation and Control. The units highlighted in red are the units that are credit transferred from the electrical licence and the ones in blue are the ones credit transferred from the Cert. IV in Electrical Instrumentation.
