National Certificate in Engineering and Technology (Glass Containers) (Level 2)
Level
2
Credits
102
Purpose
The National Certificate in Engineering and Technology (Glass Containers) (Level 2)
[Ref: 0947] is a technical qualification in the glass container manufacturing industry, and
builds on the skills gained through the Glass Containers strand of the National Certificate
in Materials Processing (Level 1) [Ref: 1072]. It is designed to systematically build
specialised glass container manufacturing and related engineering skills and knowledge.
It also provides a pathway to higher level qualifications.
Holders of this certificate are typically production operators who are able to undertake
limited specialised activities under supervision involving glass container production,
inspection, and packaging.
The qualification comprises a requirement for key glass and glass container quality
analysis, as well as core mechanical engineering skills and knowledge such as
measurement, selection and use of hand tools, safe working practices, and basic
engineering drawing and design. An elective section supplements this with a substantial
and largely mechanical engineering selection, which can be tailored to meet industry
preference and the aspirations and abilities of the individual. The qualification also
includes a further elective section designed to provide underpinning knowledge and skills
such as interpersonal communications, work and study skills, and reading.
This qualification can lead to the National Certificates in Engineering and Technology
(Glass Containers) (Level 3) [Ref: 0948] and (Level 4) [Ref: 0949].
Special Notes
Prerequisite: National Certificate in Materials Processing (Level 1) [Ref: 1072], Glass
Containers strand, or demonstrate equivalent knowledge and skills.

Requirements for Award of Qualification
Award of NZQF National Qualifications
Credit gained for a standard may be used only once to meet the requirements of this qualification.
Unit standards and achievement standards that are equivalent in outcome are mutually exclusive for the
purpose of award. The table of mutually exclusive standards is provided on the New Zealand Qualifications
Authority (NZQA) website: http://www.nzqa.govt.nz/qualifications-standards/standards/standards-exclusionlist/.
Reviewed standards that continue to recognise the same overall outcome are registered as new versions
and retain their identification number (ID). Any version of a standard with the same ID may be used to meet
qualification requirements that list the ID and/or that specify the past or current classification of the standard.
