Orientation session
Part of the Higher Education enrolment process at TAFE Queensland is your attendance at orientation. This provides you with information about being a para professional in the Civil Engineering sector. It will enable you to make an informed decision about your ability to successfully complete the course.
At orientation, you will be informed about the academic calendar, time commitments, and other demands the course will place upon you, so you can make an informed decision about your enrolment at TAFE Queensland. Learn more >
Criminal History check
During your enrolment at TAFE Queensland you may be required to provide TAFE Queensland with updated Criminal History Checks. If your police check identifies that you have a criminal history, you may be disqualified from being eligible to undertake placement and assessment, which would affect your course outcomes. If you think this might impact you, please speak to the relevant Coordinator for further information.
Basic Key Skills Builder (bksb)
Successful applicants enrolling into the first semester may be required to undergo diagnostic testing through the Basic Key Skills Builder (bksb) platform. This testing is delivered by TAFE Queensland.
This process identifies knowledge gaps in Mathematics and English language competencies. This is followed by referring students to remedial classes as required.
Students are occasionally referred to TAFE Queensland’s Adult Tertiary Preparation Mathematics and English Language courses prior to resuming their enrolment.
Government Loan Schemes
This course is also approved for FEE-HELP. FEE-HELP is an Australian Government loan scheme that covers the cost of your tuition fees on your behalf. FEE-HELP is available to students who are not studying in a Commonwealth supported place (and are therefore not eligible for HECS-HELP).
