Course Outline

Practicals

Overview

Hands-on practical sessions are integral to this course, allowing learners to apply theoretical knowledge in a workshop setting. Over 28 hours, learners will practice cutting, drilling, riveting, bonding, welding, and assembling aluminium components, culminating in a final project that demonstrates comprehensive assembly skills.

Practical Activities

• Practical 1: Cutting and Drilling Aluminium — Learners use hand and power tools to cut aluminium sheet and drill holes to specified dimensions. (4h)
• Practical 2: Riveting and Bolted Connections — Learners install various rivets and bolted joints on aluminium components, following joint design specifications. (6h)
• Practical 3: Adhesive Bonding of Aluminium — Learners prepare surfaces, mix and apply adhesive, and clamp samples for curing. (4h)
• Practical 4: TIG Welding of Aluminium Joints — Learners set up TIG welder and perform butt, lap, and T-joints on aluminium plates. (8h)
• Practical 5: Final Assembly Project — Learners independently assemble a pre-designed aluminium structure using a combination of techniques, followed by inspection. (6h)

Summatives

Each delegate is assessed continuously throughout the course via daily exercises, scored practical assignments, and a final summative test at the end.

Practical Assignments — 30%

Practical assignments are observed and scored against a rubric during the practical sessions. Each delegate's practical mark is averaged into a single 100% score and contributes 30% to the final total.

Daily Exercises — 20%

Every training day ends with a multiple-choice exercise scored out of 100%. The scores from each daily exercise are averaged across the duration of the course to produce a Daily Average mark, which contributes 20% to the final total.

Final Test — 50%

On the last day a final summative test is written. It is a multiple-choice paper with multiple-answer questions: each question may have more than one correct option, and a single wrong selection on a question marks the entire question wrong — no partial credit. The final test is scored out of 100% and contributes 50% to the overall mark.

Final Total

Component	Out of	Weight
Practical Assignments (rubric-scored)	100%	30%
Daily Average (multiple choice)	100%	20%
Final Test (multi-answer multiple choice)	100%	50%
Final Total	—	100%

All marks are recorded on the AATICD LMS and visible to each learner under their account.

Certificate

How it works

• Certificates are auto-generated on the AATICD LMS as soon as the marks pass the 50% threshold.
• Each certificate is a branded PDF with the delegate's name, the course title, the unit standard ID, NQF level, credits, and the date of issue.
• You can download or print your certificate from your LMS dashboard at any time after issue — there's no reissue fee and no expiry date.
• If you scored under 50% you can sit the final test again at the next scheduled session at no extra cost.

Where to find it

Sign in to the LMS, open your dashboard, and your certificates appear under My Certificates. Each entry has a View / Download button and a print option.
