MEM30405 no longer recognised for an electrical mechanic licence

MEM30405 no longer recognised for an electrical mechanic LicenceThe Electrical Regulatory Authorities Council (ERAC) has reviewed the Metals and Engineering Training Package qualification, MEM30405, and has determined that it is not satisfactory for eligibility for the issue of an electrical mechanic or equivalent licence.

All Australian jurisdictions have decided not to accept the qualification for eligibility for an electrical mechanic licence.

Manufacturing Skills Australia ISC (MSA), at http://www.mskills.com.au/, advise that the coverage of electrical skills in the Metal and Engineering training package (MEM05) is a high priority in the review of this Training Package. The MSA Board of Directors is committed to maintaining viable training and recognition pathways for electrical workers in MEM. MSA is working closely with technical experts, electrical regulators and industry, with an expectation that the work will be completed by the end of 2010.
