Extended transition period: UEE30811 Certificate III in Electrotechnology Electrician

In some cases, ASQA is empowered to approve transition periods longer than those detailed in Clauses 1.26 (a), (b) and (c) of the Standards for Registered Training Organisations 2015.

In accordance with the Guidance for Providers – Learner Transitions, ASQA will only consider applications for a longer transition period where it can be demonstrated that there would be genuine disadvantage to a cohort of learners if such an extension was not approved.

ASQA has extended the transition end date for current apprentices completing their third or fourth year of study in the qualification UEE30811 Certificate III in Electrotechnology Electrician to 31 January 2024 for all ASQA registered RTOs. 

The extended training, assessment, and certification issuance period for UEE30811 - Certificate III in Electrotechnology Electrician qualification will end on 31 January 2024.

It was demonstrated to ASQA that learners would be genuinely disadvantage if they were required to transition to the replacement qualification as the significance of changes would not provide the expected outcomes for existing learners.

ASQA consulted Victorian Registration and Qualification Authority (VRQA) and Training Accreditation Council Western Australia (TAC WA) for this extended transition request.

The UEE30811 - Certificate III in Electrotechnology Electrician qualification will remain on ASQA registered RTOs scope of registration until the end of the extended transition period unless the RTO chooses to withdraw it from scope prior.
