    ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING DEPARMENT

    The primary purpose of the Electrical Department is to enrich the knowledge and skills of learners, apprentices and the community at large in the field of Electrical Engineering.

    In doing so, we facilitate various qualifications, courses and skills programs that are registered with ESETA, MERSETA and CHIETA. The courses we present are Modular or Unit Standard based and include a considerable portion of practical application or experiential training. Competence is measured through proven and successfully passing assessments, methods and practical evaluations.

    APPRENTICESHIPS

    The range of courses offered are approximately a year in duration for each level. The learner would complete an initial three to four months at ETC before going to a host employer where they would practically apply what they have learned. At the end of the year the learner returns to ETC for their assessment and evaluation, done by an independent moderator. If judged competent, the learner may then progress to the next higher level.

    LEGACY APPRENTICESHIPS

    The range and duration of modular courses offered range from 1 day up to 3 months with a combination of numerous modules.

    A 3 year apprenticeship requires on average a 3 month institutionalised modular training period at ETC (min Phases 1-3), thereafter a 3 month training period at a technical college (min 4 subject NTC 2 in the relative trade) and thereafter a 3 month on the job exposure in the technical field at a selected company (minimum 80 weeks).

    After completing the 3 years and the minimum requirements one can apply for a trade test.

    One does not have to complete a full phase at a time, modules may be selected from within each phase and be completed according to a training calendar drawn up by the department head.

    This is currently being superseded by Occupational Certificate Artisan Apprenticeships.

    The Last date for enrolment was 30/06/2024 and it expires on 30/06/2026

     SHORT COURSES

    Specific courses can be tailored to meet client requirements, drawing from the vast range of training material that ETC has readily on file or from information from the client.

     

    GENERAL MECHANICAL

    In general mechanical training we have a variety of courses that are not accredited.

    Although not accredited the same level of quality to that of Accredited training is delivered.

     TECHNICAL WELDING

    We do offer non accredited welder courses as they have been designed from DIY to industry lead requirements

    Although not accredited the same level of quality to that of accredited training is delivered.

    Often accredited and non-accredited courses are given at the same time to a group as the quality of training and training techniques are identical.

    Non accredited welder courses have been designed from DIY to industry lead requirements.

    Course contents may be adapted to suit company requirements.

    This Table below will assist you in identifying various weld positions in the courses presented on the next few pages.

     WELDING POSITIONS
    Fillet Weld
    1F Flat (Axis of weld Horizontal) 3F Vertical (Axis of weld Vertical)
    2F Horizontal (Axis of weld Horizontal) 4F Overhead (Axis of weld Horizontal)

    Pipe Weld
    1G Flat, Pipe shall be turned or rolled while welding, (Axis of pipe horizontal) 5G Flat, Pipe shall not be turned or rolled while welding, (Axis of pipe horizontal)
    2G Horizontal, (Axis of pipe vertical) 6G Inclined Axis with pipe stationary (Axis of pipe 45°)

     

    DIY – WELDING

    This course is aimed at first time equipment owners and DIY enthusiasts who would like to begin welding or require assistance in welding techniques.

    This course will assist you in the safety aspects, the setting up and use of equipment and practical exercises in the basic welding techniques.

    You are welcome to bring your own training equipment to set up and use at ETC in training.

    You will require further practice at home.

    ETC will issue an attendance certificate on completion of the course

    LEARNERSHIPS

     

    The range of courses offered are approximately a year in duration for each level.

    The learner would complete an initial three to four months at ETC before going to a host employer where they would practically apply what they have learned.

    At the end of the year the learner returns to ETC for their assessment and evaluation, done by an independent moderator.

    If judged competent, the learner may then progress to the next higher level.

     

    Generally, Learnerships at the lower level average around 20 to 24 individual registered unit standards.

    Any one, or any combination or group of specific unit standards can be offered to individuals or industry to suit particular requirements.

    There are 2 challenges when considering unit standard training is that it requires a group of at least 8 learners and a host company is to be secured prior to enrolment with MERSETA.
