AUR32220 is the nationally recognised Certificate III behind autoglazier work. It has been the current version on the national register since 2020, when it replaced AUR32216. About 204 autoglazier jobs were advertised in June 2026, down 3.5% on a year earlier.
The signals behind the Certificate III in Automotive Glazing Technology are mixed, and both sides are worth weighing. Autoglaziers are in national shortage. Enrolments are falling. These are official statistics, not a promise about your result.
Job ads for autoglaziers are holding steady. About 204 autoglazier jobs were advertised online in June 2026, down 3.5% on a year earlier. Over the last 12 months there were about 2,700 job ads, while 490 people were training in the qualification nationally (2025). Ads show the market. Enrolments show the pipeline. Neither is a job promise.
Australia's official shortage list rates motor vehicle parts and accessories fitter (general)s and autoglaziers as in shortage. The 2025 Occupation Shortage List rates Motor Vehicle Parts and Accessories Fitter (General) and Autoglazier as in national shortage; Exhaust and Muffler Repairer, Radiator Repairer and Tyre Fitter as not in shortage.
