Hi,

Hi,

I am a sparkie and have got my ARTC from the TRA.

The template above is spot on but make sure your other half goes into detail on the types of works and installations he has done.

On the TRAs website it says an Australian sparkie should be able to do the following -

reading work instructions and technical drawings common to the trade;

planning independently the method and order of doing a job;

using measuring instruments correctly;

marking out, laying out and setting up trade work;

selecting appropriate materials, tools, machines and equipment;

making appropriate settings on tools, machines and equipment;

performing trade work independently; and

checking and/or testing work against established standards.

You must also demonstrate that you have sufficient theoretical or underpinning knowledge of the trade.

Use these exact words as headers and give examples as to how you achive these in you daily and weekly works.

I also sent in a sample job from start to finish with photos showing how i achieved all of the above in a single job.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for that LynseyB and the Bacons,that has helped a lot

Cheers

Carolyn.

Hi Bacons

My oh is just started to fill in his ARTC application. With regards to certificates - does he need to get them copied & then certified by a solicitor or are colour copies acceptable without being certified?

thanks

Hi, you need to send in certified copies as per the TRA guidelines.
