Students (international & domestic) enrolling into Dual Diploma of Civil Construction Design must meet the following entry requirements:

• A candidate must be a minimum age of 18+ years at the time of course commencement.
• Submit copy of minimum Year 12 or equivalent international qualification
• Successfully complete a Language, Literacy, Numeracy & Digital test (LLND)
  
  • Candidate undertaking this course must possess sound language, literacy, and numeracy skills since it requires them to do calculations, perform computations, engineering measurements, plan work activities, mechanical cutting, thermal cutting & welding.
  • All students are required to undertake a language, literacy, numeracy and digital (LLND) test conducted by institute.
  • If learners do not meet English and LLND requirements, learners will be asked to take further Language, literacy, numeracy and digital training.
    
    • Domestic students: Reading writing hotline – 1300 655 506
    • International students: English Language Intensive Course for Overseas Learners (ELICOS) programs with other institutes (as Institute doesn’t offer ELICOS)
• Ability to independently use & operate a computer / laptop and knowledge of basic use of office applications. (Part of the PTR process). Learners those who do not possess basic computing skills will be referred to take basic computer training before enrolment e.g. international computer driving licence (ICDL), fee is charged by ICDL. (Please refer https://icdl.org/ for more details)
• Students may also need to have access to a computer (Laptop) & internet service outside class hours.
  
  • Although Institute will provide access to computers / laptops with required resources during classroom hours however to work on assignments and tasks for self-study.
