For diagrams, inspections and testing

Matchmaster’s promise is simple; when a Matchmaster system is installed according to our design it will provide the highest quality reception first time, every time!

For industry training and education

As customers become more tech-savvy, their service expectations of technicians also increase. So to meet the rising demand for digital entertainment and technologies, Matchmaster and its RTO partners, have developed a series of new accredited TV Reception Training Courses to help technicians gain the knowledge and skills required.

Matchmaster Digital TV Reception Training Program

Matchmaster has been delivering industry trusted and approved training for over 15 years. Our Program continues to provide installers with the theory and practical knowledge to service the field with confidence.

RTO accredited Courses

The Matchmaster Training Program has been developed based on the requirements of the Australian Qualifications Training Framework (AQTF). This requires training to be delivered under the competency based methodology and will therefore ensure the knowledge and skills are assessed to a high standard.

Matchmaster in conjunction with our RTO partner, Conquest Communications Australia, delivers Certificate II and III in Digital Reception Technology. Matchmaster offers the core technology competencies for digital terrestrial reception covering terrestrial and satellite platforms, through the digital TV reception training programs. Conquest Communications Australia will then deliver the balance of competencies to enable the learner to achieve Certification. For further information on Certification visit the Conquest Communications Australia website.

Technology is rapidly changing and the demand for new technology in Digital Ready Reception services is high. Whether it is a housing estate, block of units, apartments, hospitals, clubs, luxury hotels or resorts the importance of providing an integrated and expandable communications network is imperative. Providing a specially designed and installed integrated system for Digital services will ensure that future expansion is catered for.
