What skills and knowledge do I need?

The key to becoming an Automotive Electrician is a qualification called Certificate III in Automotive Electrical Technology (AUR30320). It's like a training program in Australia that teaches you the important stuff you need to know to fix car electrics.

To get this qualification, you'll learn different skills through "units." Think of these units as smaller lessons that focus on specific things, like how to test batteries or fix car lights.  By completing all these units, you'll be ready to tackle a variety of electrical problems in cars!

You must achieve 32 units of competency:
