RII50520 : Diploma of Civil Construction Design - CRICOS 118439M
This course is the starting point for the Civil Construction Design stream of courses and prepares students with the knowledge and skills for a paraprofessional role supporting professional engineers or for further learning at the Advanced or Bachelor's level.
This qualification reflects the role of individuals working as designers or design paraprofessionals who support professional engineers. They perform tasks involving a high level of autonomy and requiring the application of significant judgement in planning and determining the selection of equipment/roles/techniques for themselves and others. They are required to develop site-specific work designs to ensure the implementation of the client’s site requirements. They demonstrate the application of a broad range of technical, managerial, coordination and planning skills.
