The development of welding skills using the latest Augmented Reality technology and provide participants with a simulated real-life welding experience. They allow the user to master their skills in a safe non-threatening environment before providing opportunities to practice them in the actual welding environment using industry standard equipment.
After initial workplace health and safety training, this program will utilise TAFE Queensland’s Augmented Reality welding simulators providing participants with a safe gamification type learning experience on the development of welding skills. These simulators use the latest technology and provide participants with a simulated real-life welding experience displaying augmented visuals, sounds, and feels of using a welder. They allow the user to master their skills in a safe non-threatening environment before applying them in the actual practical welding environment.
Once participants have mastered their skill through the augmented reality welders, participants will apply their skills to complete a small welding project using real live gas metal arc welders. This will provide participants with a holistic view of the welding experience and familiarise themselves with the workshop conditions, assisting to change perception regarding welding as a career option.
The training campus at TAFE Queensland SkillsTech has fully qualified and industry experienced teachers who will instruct participants on the safe use of equipment and appropriate Personal Protective Equipment required. At the start of each program, participants will have the opportunity to tour the training campus and see firsthand a range of trade career options with particular focus on the engineering faculties with links to where a STEM career can take them before focusing purely on a welding trade.
Students will be provided with:
