	Advanced Nationally Accredited Qualifications We are currently developing a nationally accredited course for collision repairers to advance their level of expertise. To our knowledge this qualification is not offered by any other Accredited Training Provider and it is a first in Australia. This course is suitable for both spray painters as well as panel beaters and you learn additional trade skills. The course curriculum is not set and you are invited to choose from a bank of competencies to suit you and we are happy to assist you in this process. The Certificate IV in Automotive (AUR40205) requires 10 competencies and depending on your experience, some of these units can be RPL, meaning, we can assess if you have sufficient experience to fulfill the criteria without training. If this sounds like a course that interests you, contact us and we will let you know as soon the course is offered.

All these courses can be accessed online anywhere in Australia
