This three-year, full-time MQF Level 4 advanced diploma (120 ECTS credits) prepares technicians for careers in electrical power systems across domestic and industrial settings, built around the requirements Malta's energy and water-services regulator, REWS, sets for Electrical Wireman's Authorisation A and B.

Modules covering building services, photovoltaic systems and electronic control technology add further depth, and students also gain exposure to mechanical workshop practice. Graduates typically move into roles such as plant electrical technician, industry technician or lead industrial electrician.
