It serves as a &#8220;pre-apprenticeship&#8221; level credential that provides significant credit towards a Certificate III apprenticeship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Core Competencies &amp; Skills Covered<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To achieve the CPC20220, you must demonstrate competency in <strong>10 units<\/strong> (5 core and 5 electives).
