The time taken to complete this course will vary depending on the individual. To be eligible for entry into this course, you should have satisfactorily passed Year 12, or have sufficient work experience, or be a mature age applicant. All applicants are required to possess sufficient literacy, numeracy, and visual interpretation skills to successfully complete the course. You will need to apply directly to the Off Campus Learning Services. All modules are one semester in length.
Students can enroll anytime during the two semesters.
After this course, you will be able to progress into the Diploma in Building, however this is only available on campus at this stage. Exemptions and Credit Transfers come under the broad heading of 'Recognition of Prior Learning'. Recognition of Prior Learning acknowledges any previous training or education you may have done, or any relevant work or life experience you may have gained, through granting various exemptions or credit transfers. Exemptions may free you from having to undertake certain units as they recognise you have already gained the skills through other study, work or life experience. Credit Transfers are granted if you are studying, or have studied, the same unit in another course at Box Hill Institute, or in the same course undertaken at another Institute, so that you don t have to do it again.
