PMBWELD301E – Butt weld polyethylene plastic pipelines
PMBWELD302E – Electrofusion weld polyethylene pipelines
This course teaches learners how to weld polyethylene (PE) plastic pipes and pipeline components safely and effectively to quality assurance requirements whilst maintaining personal and site safety.
Butt welding is a basic welding technique that joins two pieces of material together along a single edge. Poly butt refers to the technique being used for PE.
Electrofusion welding is commonly used to join PE pipes or PE and polypropylene (PP) pipes. Electrofusion welding is known for its consistency and ability to create strong joints; therefore, it is commonly used for the construction and repair of gas-carrying pipelines.

Students who satisfactorily complete all course requirements will be eligible to receive a Statement of Attainment issued by CEPUTEC (RTO 4612), which is recognised nationally under the Australian Qualifications Framework.
The stamp is an ID tool. Each stamp has a unique ID number. When a join is made on a pipe, the welder (you) should stamp the join. If the join fails, the stamp ID can be traced to identify the person who carried out the work. In this case, your ID will be linked back to CEPUTEC and we can alert you to the issue. The stamp ID number is recorded on your Statement of Attainment and on your CEPUTEC card and kept in a register by CEPUTEC.
Not everyone chooses to have a stamp, it is optional however it is considered best practice within industry to stamp your work.

Covers the mandatory work health and safety training required prior to undertaking tasks on a construction site.
If you study any Nationally Recognised Training in Australia, you are required to have a USI. Your USI links to an online account that contains all your training records and results (transcripts) that you have completed since 2015.
When applying for a job or enrolling in further study, you will often need to provide your training records and results (transcript). The benefit of the USI is the ability to provide learners with easy access to their training records at any time.
You can access your USI account online from your computer, tablet or smart phone.
If you do not already have a USI, go to www.usi.gov.au/students/create-your-usi/ on a computer or mobile device.
Note: A USI must be supplied to CEPUTEC during enrolment so that a Nationally Recognised Qualification or Statement of Attainment can be issued to you.
