Outcomes

Careers this course leads to

5 routes mapped from this qualification.

Architectural Assistant
Prepares drawings, details and documentation for architects and interior designers, and keeps drawing sets in order as a project changes. A drawing-office role rather than a design one.
Alternative route
Interior Design Assistant
Supports an interior designer with drawings, material samples, vendor coordination and site checks. The usual way into interiors from a certificate or ITI route.
Alternative route
CAD Technician
Prepares and maintains CAD drawings and models for a design or manufacturing office, including revisions, layouts and detail sheets. Software fluency across more than one package widens the work considerably.
Alternative route
3D Visualiser
Builds and renders three-dimensional views of a space or product so a client can see it before it is made, typically for interiors, architecture or advertising. Speed and lighting judgement separate the good from the merely competent.
Alternative route
Site Coordinator
Keeps a construction or interiors site moving - drawings, materials, labour and the daily report back to the office. It sits between the design team and the people building, and needs both to trust you.
Alternative route

A course supports eligibility and preparation. It never guarantees a particular job.
