Everything about Tafe Tasmania totally explained
TAFE Tasmania is an
Australian
tertiary body that's the
Tasmanian division of the Australian state-based
Technical and Further Education system. It includes two institutes, the
Institute of TAFE Tasmania and the
Drysdale Institute.
The Institute of TAFE Tasmania (including the Drysdale Institute) was established as a legal authority under the TAFE Tasmania Act
1997, and began operating as a State-wide training organisation on
1 January 1998. The previous TAFE administration was
regionally-based - this shift aimed to enrich relationships with industry and the community, and to facilitate a more effective use of resources.
Institutes
TAFE Institute
TAFE Tasmania plays a part in the development of lifelong
learning for Tasmanians. As part of the national TAFE network it's the largest registered
training organisation in the State, and delivers
vocational education and training at an
international standard.
Products and services are delivered through 18 programs operating from over 20 training sites. Flexible delivery is an integral feature of TAFE Tasmania, with training delivered in the home, at the workplace, at Online Access Centres via computer, or at TAFE campuses. Within this changing environment, the integration of learning and work plays a major part. The enhanced focus on generic skills and learning at work has increasingly influenced the type and range of partnerships the Institute has developed with local
enterprise and community clients.
Drysdale Institute
Drysdale is Tasmania's premier provider of training in
Hospitality and
Tourism. Graduates are found in high-profile jobs around the globe.
Drysdale also has a close relationship with the hospitality and tourism industries, and is able to offer an exciting range of career opportunities to anyone interested.
