Note: Not all electives are available at all campuses.
Studying on campus is a great way to enjoy the benefits of face-to-face education in a way that is far removed from a typical school. No matter which campus you choose, you know that you will be learning in an adult environment where you will be respected and nurtured. Attend a campus to learn face-to-face with a teacher in one of our learning spaces; such as a classroom, workshop, laboratory or simulated environments, or interact with teachers using real-time video or web conference tools.
Courses delivered on campus may have a combination of online and classroom based learning. Students studying full time should allow up to 16 hours per week of personal study time to complete the course requirements.
If you want to go on to further study at university, TAFE Queensland has a pathway option to get you there. In many cases, completing one of our diplomas may give you a full year of credit towards a degree with one of our partner universities.

Applying for a course does not guarantee you a place in that course. Your place is only guaranteed once you enrol into units. Enrolling means that you are committing yourself to study, and to paying the associated fees. The tuition fees and applicable charges are required to be paid at enrolment or by scheduled instalment dates either by yourself, a nominated third party (e.g. your employer), or as identified within a contract for delivery of TAFE Queensland training.
If you have difficulty paying for the full cost of a course upfront, you may be eligible for a payment plan.
The course is open to students who have completed the seven Electrical Knowledge units of competency (or equivalent) as prescribed in the Clean Energy Councils accreditation pathways document.
These units can be undertaken by enrolling in the course in Foundation Electrical Units Pre Requisites - Renewable Energy Clean Energy Council Accreditation offered by TAFE Queensland SkillsTech.
Students with a strong electrical knowledge background including electricians and engineers (particularly electrical and electronics) may be granted exemption from these units.
Unit UEENEEK125A Design Grid Connected Photovoltaic Systems is required for Grid Connect Accreditation which is to be undertaken prior to, and separately from the dedicated Stand-Alone Power Systems units.
Required Textbook – it is essential that you bring these to the first day of class:
Please note: you cannot save these files for more than a couple of days as they disappear, so you would need to print them out.
Materials List:
Students failing to meet these minimum standards of dress will not be permitted entry in to practical classes.
UEENEEK125A Design Grid Connected Photovoltaic Systems is required for Grid Connect Accreditation which can be undertaken in the Grid Connect Install Course.
Skill and knowledge assessments are an essential step in progressing through your course. You may be assessed in a number of ways while you are studying at TAFE Queensland, including observation, written assessment, questioning, portfolios, work samples, third-party feedback, and through recognition of prior learning.
