Inherent requirements - trades
Before deciding if a course is right for you, it's important to make an informed choice and consider the key skills, knowledge, and assessment requirements involved.
Review the below inherent requirements for the course and reflect on whether any of these might present difficulties for you, and if they align with your abilities and goals. If you feel you may have challenges due to a disability, a health condition, or for any other reason, we encourage you to speak with a regional Education Manager, a student services team member, or the regional AccessAbility Officer to discuss your concerns and confirm if the course is suitable for you.
Reasonable adjustments may be available to support students who feel they need assistance with learning and assessments in their studies. Students are advised that TAFE Queensland, however, cannot mandate that industry provides reasonable adjustments in the workplace to accommodate personal preferences or support needs. Adherence to industry standards and national guidelines is essential and must be demonstrated consistently during practical assessment. Students are also advised that any reasonable adjustment cannot alter the integrity or objective of an assessment.
