Students at Major training have been busy this week getting stuck into their fully funded Certificate II in engineering pathways.
Major Training is proud to partner with Energy Skills Queensland by running the Certificate II in Engineering pathways and helping students get into the engineering industry. Energy Skills Queensland (ESQ) is an independent, not-for-profit organisation providing innovative solutions to enable a skilled and safe energy industry.
This certificate is achieved through an eight-week course that includes a week of work experience at a real organisation. Students are given the opportunity to find their preferred organisation for work placement, but if they can’t ESQ will find experience for them at an organisation in their chosen field.
We asked one of our current students Naryssa some questions about the course:

To learn new skills that will lead to full-time employment.
What job do you hope to get from doing this course?
I want to become a Boiler Maker.

Where do you see yourself in five years?
In a full-time role that I love and that makes me enough money to give my kids the life they deserve.
This course gives students the opportunity to gain the skills and knowledge they need to enter a CERT III engineering apprenticeship that will assist them on their desired career path.
