VET Update

Teaching and learning for our students has changed and we have needed to adapt to the challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic. Students enrolled in VET courses are strongly urged to check their online platforms (emails and Google classrooms) daily to stay informed of any updates as they occur. As I am informed of any updates concerning TAFE, TAFE digital, SBATs, I will be communicating via email to students, students please read/check your emails every day. 

TAFE

All TAFE delivery will be via online connected classroom, all students should have received an email or SMS from their TAFE teacher outlining the new online connected sessions. I have sent an email this week, which outlines the delivery of each class, students please check your emails. Attendance of each connected session will be recorded please attend all of your sessions. Work placement guidelines will apply as per Department of Education and NESA advice, Please email your TAFE teachers to find out more. TAFE Digital delivery for online students is proceeding as usual. For some courses where practical tasks and assessments cannot be done at this time, TAFE teachers are rearranging training plans to give access to theory work. Students are to continue with their course and contact their TAFE Digital teacher if you have any questions or concerns.

SBAT- School Based Apprenticeship/Traineeships - are proceeding as usual. As each student is completing individual training plans and working in a diverse range of employment areas, each case is different. The students need to communicate with their work concerning whatever procedures each organisation has in place. Students also need to communicate with their training instructors of any changes with the delivery of their course. Online delivery should be proceeding as usual.

If you have any issues accessing classes please contact your TAFE teacher immediately, and let me know if I can help with anything. 

Stay Healthy, Stay Safe
