You would be guessing right. Lots of fairly average stuff too, but that happens everywhere.

Well i am not sure weather your ticket will be recognized
here , but for starters this is what you will need.


Refrigerant Handling Licence: (for people only trained in the safe use of gases , and they do not hand out experienced persons licences anymore so you will have to get the ticket approved.)

Restricted Electrical Licence: (for work up to 1000v ac or 1500v dc , but no fixed wiring.)

Certificate II in Split System Air Conditioning: (if the ticket wont be recognized
, or if you have only done refrigeration , not both.)

Blue Card: (if working on construction sites.)

Hope this helps you a little bit , but there is tons more if you are going to work for yourself.

Good luck.
