Curriculum alignment, state by state.
Pick your state, see the unit codes, see where the credit lands on the transcript. The Charge Academy program maps to Certificate II / III in Automotive Electric Vehicle Technology on the AUR Automotive Training Package — read across each senior-secondary framework via the same VET-in-Schools pathway any other Certificate II or III program uses.
How to read the map
Rows are course modules. Columns are your state.
Each table below shows the five Charge Academy modules down the left and the matching state framework — unit codes, strands, the lot — across the rest. Read each row to see what student work closes out which unit, and where the credit lands on the transcript (most rows end either on the senior-secondary certificate or on the ATAR via the state's standard VET rules). Five states are mapped today; the rest is in the waitlist at the bottom of the page.
Per-state mapping
Five states, five tables
Each section below is anchored on the state abbreviation so you can deep-link straight to the framework you need: #vce, #qce, #sace, #wace, #tce.

At-a-glance framework legend
Who awards what, and how it lands on the ATAR
The senior-secondary framework is published by the awarding body in each state. The AUR Automotive Training Package credit lands on every framework via the same VET-in-Schools pathway — what changes is the awarding body and the ATAR rule that applies to the VET credit.
