Get skills to apply for a restricted Electrical licence
If you work in the building and construction industry, you may be eligible to access Construction Skills Queensland funding. Learn more
This is the total course fee. Read more about student loans and payment plans.
Qualified tradespeople may apply for a restricted Electrical Licence, which requires skill sets including: composite equipment, instrumentation/process control, plumbing and gas, electric motors, electronics and refrigeration, and air conditioning.
The number of competencies required depends on your existing electrical work training permit. Restricted Electrical Work Licences do not authorise the holder to carry out installation work. You will receive a Statement of Attainment, but not the full Certificate III in Appliance Service qualification.
