PLACES AVAILABLE: 0SYDNEYENROL NOW

LERNNA IS A SPECIALIST RTO – WE ONLY TRAIN INSTALLERS OF PE PIPELINES

 

If you’re a plumber or civil installer working PE pipelines in Australia you will need to complete a nationally accredited Unit of Competency:

 

– PMBWELD301E – Join polyethylene plastic pipelines using butt welding. This covers the technique for fusing PE pipe ends together under heat and pressure to create strong, permanent joins.

 

– PMBWELD302E – Join polyethylene plastic pipelines using electrofusion welding. This covers the process for  joining PE pipe using fittings embedded with electrical heating elements for precise, reliable connections.

 

Online Theory Modules:

Study at your own pace using any internet-capable device

 

Face-To-Face Training:
Our trainers are industry experts and you get hands-on experience with the latest tooling

 

PMBWELD301E  – join polyethylene plastic pipe using butt welding – can help you gain the practical skills, technical confidence, and industry-ready knowledge needed to perform butt welding to specification.

You will learn the fundamentals of welding equipment, fittings, materials, and safety, along with hands-on techniques required to produce high-quality welds that meet Australian standards.

And you’ll be guided by experienced trainers who bring real-world insight from the field, ensuring practical and relevant training that is aligned with current industry expectations.

By the end of the course, you’ll not only understand the “how” of poly pipe welding, but also the “why” – why precision matters, why safety is paramount and why skilled welders are vital to Australia’s essential pipeline networks.

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN
PMBWELD301E – join polyethylene plastic pipe using butt welding – learning a solid mix of technical, practical, and safety-focused skills essential for working in the pipeline and plastics fabrication industries. Key skills learned include:

• Understanding materials and equipment
Students learn how different thermoplastic materials behave, how to select the correct welding method, and how to set up, operate, and maintain welding equipment safely and efficiently.

• Performing a range of plastic welding techniques
This includes butt welding, electrofusion welding, extrusion welding, and other methods required to meet job specifications. Students practise preparing surfaces, aligning components, controlling temperatures, and completing welds to industry standards.

• Interpreting job instructions and specifications
Learners develop the ability to read and follow technical drawings, plans, and work requirements to ensure welds meet structural, functional, and regulatory criteria.

• Conducting inspections and quality checks
Students are taught how to inspect welds visually, perform basic testing, identify defects, and take corrective action to ensure the weld’s integrity and compliance with workplace or industry standards.

• Applying WHS and environmental procedures
A major component involves understanding and following safe work practices, risk control measures, and environmental responsibilities relevant to plastic welding and pipeline installation.

• Preparing and completing job documentation
Students learn how to accurately record work activities, testing outcomes, and compliance information in line with workplace procedures.

PMBWELD301E equips students with the hands-on capability and professional discipline needed to produce reliable, high-quality plastic welds in real-world field and workshop environments.
