Guest lezwolf Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 Alright mate. Are you qualified in air conditioning?? I've been fitting air con for over 4 years and will still have 1 or 2 problems with the tests. It's not as cut and dry as you'd think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
possie in brissy Posted February 13, 2010 Share Posted February 13, 2010 welders dont need licences,(in QLD anyway) not sure about other states!!!! they are classed as "boilermakers" over here, (just incase u are lookin on job websites, cause we kept puttin in "welder" on careerone.com.au and not getting many results, but we soon realised it was "boliermaker" hope this helps good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
