The CPC20220 Certificate II in Construction Pathways is the ultimate gateway for anyone looking to solidify their standing in the Australian building and construction industry. If you’ve been working on-site as a laborer or trade assistant, you likely already possess the skills required for this qualification. Through our RPL (Recognition of Prior Learning) process, we help you turn that hands-on experience into a nationally recognized certificate without stepping back into a classroom.
What is the CPC20220 Qualification?
This qualification is designed to introduce and formalize the skills needed for primary trades such as carpentry, bricklaying, joinery, and wall/floor tiling. It serves as a “pre-apprenticeship” level credential that provides significant credit towards a Certificate III apprenticeship.
Core Competencies & Skills Covered
To achieve the CPC20220, you must demonstrate competency in 10 units (5 core and 5 electives). Through RPL, we look for evidence of your expertise in:
