Limited Entry Courses: While Westlake endevours to provide all students with their first choices, in some courses there are limits for specialist staffing and/or rooming and equipment reasons.

Students who have taken the subject in the previous year will have priority entry.
Level 2 Mechanical Engineering
This course focuses on a selection of the foundation skills that are required for the Level 2 Mechanical Engineering and Related Trades Qualification. The unit standards gained may be used as the first stage of an apprenticeship or as the basis for pre-trade courses. The course is particularly relevant for people wishing to pursue careers in general engineering, machining, toolmaking, fitting, engineering maintenance, engineering fabrication, and marine engineering.
This course consists of theory and practical learning and requires other Unit Standards to complete the Mechanical Engineering Level 2 National Certificate. Reference should be made to the NZQA Website NQF1220
Competenz the Industry Training Organisation (ITO) who manage the qualifications are currently reviewing their unit standards as part of a wider national review so the standards listed may change but the course content will be very similar.
