Yr 12 Electronics
Students taking this course work towards achieving the National Certificate in Electronics Technology (NCET) at Level 2. This can lead on to degrees or diplomas at tertiary level and/or employment in the electrical, electronics and telecommunications sectors. Electronics includes both theory and practical work, and entry to the course requires achievement of Mathematics 1. 1 (Algebra) and Science 1.6 (Physics).
To achieve the NCET, students must also gain 16 credits at Level 2 or above from any of the following subjects: ICT, Mathematics, Physics or Chemistry.
Partial achievement in the course may qualify for the ETITO Certificate of Attainment.
Achievement Objectives
Students can:
- Demonstrate a knowledge and understanding of basic electronics, both qualitative and quantitative.
- Carry our simple circuit constructions and make electrical measurements on such circuits.
- Understand how scientific principles are linked to electro technology.
