Engineering technicians are expected to use basic workshop tools and measuring instruments to fabricate objects using metal and non-metals. You will gain an understanding of the workshop principles and practices mentioned for each workshop below. This course will also enable you to demonstrate extensive hands-on experience to fabricate a task utilizing the workshop practices learnt in the six workshops.
Fitting workshop
Supervised hands-on training will help you develop an understanding and also demonstrate marking, cutting, drilling filling and dressing metal plate.
Welding workshop
Supervised hands-on training will help you develop an understanding and also demonstrate Arc Welding and Oxy-Fuel Welding procedures.
Carpentry and Joinery workshop
Supervised hands-on training will help you develop an understanding and also demonstrate the use of carpentry hand tools and making timber joints.
Sheet-metal and plumbing
Supervised hands-on training will help you develop an understanding and also demonstrate joining PVC, Polythene and galvanized pipe connections, and riveting and soldering thin metal sheet.
Electrical workshop
Supervised hands-on training will help you develop an understanding and also demonstrate basic electrical wiring circuits and connection.
Electronic workshop
Supervised hands-on training will help you develop an understanding and also demonstrate knowledge on wiring materials and components used in electronic application and also knowledge and skills on soldering and de-soldering.
OHS
Engineering technologists are expected to develop knowledge and understanding in the fundamentals of Occupational Health and Safety Laws with Associated Regulations. To enable students to acquire the necessary skills to be able to identify hazards and assess risk in their workplaces and also develop control measures that are effective to eliminate or reduce the risk to an acceptable level. You will understand the requirements of the HASAW Act 1996 and Legal Notice 168 Regulation for the Training of Health and Safety Reps and Committees in Fiji’s Workplaces.
Metrology
This course provides the basic foundation for mechanical measurement techniques used in manufacturing environments. The course will integrate the concepts, principles and techniques of mechanical measurement with the use of various types of instruments including micrometers, calipers, height gages, and other types of measuring equipment.
