Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Student Support
Support is available for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students at all campuses of the Institute. Enquire at your nearest campus Customer Service Centre to make contact with your Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Student Support Officer.
Many students have overcome difficulties that came with having a limited education to eventually gain a Year 10 standard. Gaining this level of education has allowed our students to continue the journey of learning and to reach the goal of being able to study within a mainstream TAFE and/or university.
Others have acquired skills and qualifications to take up their rightful role in the work force.
Not only has the dream of some students been fulfilled but also we see a brighter horizon in the future for our students in the next millennium.
