This qualification is designed as the entry-level requirement for laboratory personnel across all industries. This program prepares individuals for job roles such as laboratory technicians and instrument operators. As laboratory technicians, students engage in basic laboratory work within a specific scientific discipline. Following set procedures, they utilise their technical skills and basic scientific knowledge to prepare and test samples meticulously.
Operating test equipment and instruments, students also make limited adjustments and accurately process and record data. Through this qualification, students develop essential communication skills, learn laboratory and field work planning, and contribute to quality objectives. They also gain a comprehensive understanding of safety protocols, sample preparation, basic testing, and environmentally sustainable work practices.
