Hey Everyone! Admin here, It's a bit overdue but I will be migrating our forum site to a new platform for better security. I will take out all the ads as well as these pesky spammers. Please expect a bit of issues here and there, and will slowly move the features to the new one. Don't worry we are very much alive and will be alive as long as I'm here :)

Bachelor degree holder shifting to trade course

April 2025 in Study and Training Visa

Hello, I'm a bachelor's degree holder (Civil engineering in the Philippines) and graduated last year. It took me awhile to finish my studies because it just felt like it wasn't for me. And now, I'm just kinda floating and jobless. But my brother wanted to take me to Australia to study. I am wondering is it possible for me to take on a trade course from TAFE given my situation?

More about me, I felt like just finishing my degree just because I was told to do so. But now that I did, I want to follow what I am really interested in and that is fabrication and manufacturing, more specifically welding.

And so would it be possible for me to take on a trade course in TAFE or other Trade schools that offers Certificate II in Engineering (MEM 20422) and then proceed to Certificate III in Engineering (MEM31922)?

Thanks!
