OVERVIEW

CERTIFICATE III IN PAINTING AND DECORATING

Course Overview:

Do you love taking boring, run-down rooms and transforming them into exciting, fresh spaces? Then maybe our course in painting and decorating is for you.

You’ll study applying paint, timber finishes, decorative finishes and wallpaper. You’ll also learn about the safety and business dimensions of working in this exciting industry.

Course Description:

The course is delivered over 64 study weeks. (Up to 94 weeks including holidays) A ‘Prac Block’ may be added to assist students to log 400 hours of work experience. The college will provide and verify the logbook. Students study between 3 to 7 units across an eight-study week term then have a 2 week “Research Break”

We offer intakes every week except holiday and Research Break weeks.

The Certificate III in Painting and Decorating is assessed through Assignments/ Workbooks, Case Studies, Written Tests and Observation Checklists.

Academique supports recognition of prior learning. Students who have substantial painting and decorating will be allowed to apply for a ‘Fast Track’ option. (If on a student visa early completion must be reported via PRISMS.)

Take out

Each cohort has a different Key Day and there’s an optional tutorial day available. Please contact the school (same for painting & plastering)

Intake

Every Monday (except scheduled holiday breaks)

Equipment, tools, materials, and protective equipment are provided by the college. Students are required to bring their own closed toe shoes and steel toe boots whenever necessary in order to achieve competence in their course units. Students are also encouraged to bring their own tools and equipment if they have it. Owning your own tools and equipment may make it easier for students to find vocational placement for the work component of the course. Staff will provide extensive advice.

CAMPUS & LOCATION

Campus and Location

Gold Coast, QLD

The qualification requires evidenced knowledge and skills in a wide variety of locations using a broad range of equipment on diverse materials assessed on multiple occasions.

As a consequence, students will be required to complete numerous assessment tasks at our Southport campuses in specially created simulated environments on specified days. Some assessment tasks require the use of very expensive hire equipment.

In the event that a student does not attend a scheduled assessment task (as advised by email to their registered address) the student might have to pay to arrange a private assessment opportunity. (The fee is based on the actual cost of the assessor and equipment: up to $1,500.00. Evidenced compelling and compassionate circumstances might create exemptions).
