| PE PIPELINE WELDING REQUIRES SERIOUS SKILL

LERNNA IS THE SPECIALIST RTO BUILT TO HELP THE INDUSTRY UPSKILL

If you’re a plumber or civil installer working on water, gas, irrigation, or fire main pipelines in Australia, chances are you’re joining polyethylene (PE) pipe.

PE is the material of choice for modern infrastructure: it won’t rust, handles ground movement without cracking, and outlasts steel in harsh underground environments. But joining it correctly requires accredited training – and that’s where Lernna comes in.

PMBWELD301E covers butt welding – the technique for fusing PE pipe ends under heat and pressure to create strong, permanent joins.

PMBWELD302E covers electrofusion welding – joining PE pipe using fittings embedded with electrical heating elements for precise, reliable connections. Both are nationally accredited units of competency, recognised across all Australian states and territories.

Lernna RTO:

Lernna is a Registered Training Organisation (RTO 46511), regulated by the Australian Skills Quality Authority (ASQA). That means every qualification we issue is nationally recognised – valid across all states and territories and accepted by employers, head contractors, and compliance auditors.

Lernna - Courses

Lernna specialises in one thing: accredited training for polyethylene pipeline installers. Our courses cover the two nationally recognised welding methods for PE pipe — butt welding (PMBWELD301E) and electrofusion welding (PMBWELD302E) — across civil, plumbing, gas, irrigation, fire mains, and mining applications.

Lernna Training

Our online theory modules are smartphone-friendly and self-paced – designed to fit around site schedules, not replace them. Once you’ve completed the theory, your face-to-face practical assessment is focused and efficient. No unnecessary classroom time. No death by PowerPoint.

Lernna Aims

Australia’s water, gas, and stormwater infrastructure depends on skilled PE pipeline installers. Urban development and ageing networks mean the demand for accredited electrofusion and butt welding operators is growing. Lernna exists to meet that demand – and to make accreditation as accessible as possible for the people doing the work.
