New Zealand Apprenticeship in Electricity Supply (Traction Line) (Level 4)

LEARN HOW TO

• Integrate health and safety procedures into workplace practice when carrying out work on traction line networks.

• Apply knowledge of codes of practice, industry standards and operating procedures, and comply with asset-owner requirements when installing, maintaining or repairing traction line networks.

HOW IT WORKS

This programme will take around 21 months to complete. Achievement of this programme is through on-job assessment, or through Recognition of Current Competence (RCC). If you have 3 to 5 years of experience working in the industry, and can provide a portfolio of evidence, then RCC could be an option for you as it recognises your prior skills; allowing you to get qualified within a shorter timeframe.

Connexis arranges, delivers, supports, and assesses work-based learning for the infrastructure industries of Civil, Energy, Telecommunications, and Water. That means we help up skill the infrastructure workforce. We set programmes, evaluate assessments, and support employers and learners to obtain nationally-recognised micro-credentials and qualifications through apprenticeships and traineeships.

We are passionate about creating a sustainable infrastructure workforce for Aotearoa, which responds to the needs of industry, both now and in the future. This includes improving access to training and encouraging diversity to reach underrepresented groups such as women, Māori, and Pasifika.
