Exclusive: New pathways are being planned to lead students through courses that would combine vocational education and training with subjects taught at school and university | AnnaPattySMH

New pathways are being planned to lead students through courses that would combine vocational education and training with subjects taught at school and university.

While TAFE NSW would maintain its core role as a public provider of vocational training, Mr Faurby said it would also seek commercial opportunities with industry and international students. Mr Faurby said TAFE had a social responsibility to help people reskill and find jobs, but this did not mean it could not also "go out and provide service to the private sector".

"We see that as a massive opportunity for TAFE to turn a place like Ultimo into the place where we welcome thousands of international students to come and enjoy not just what we have to offer, but what Sydney has to offer," he said. "I have confidence that what will come out of this is a defined pathway where universities and the vocational sector will go hand in hand in defining good outcomes and good solutions for students."

“On the down side, it is disappointing that there has been no announced increase in support for those wanting to commence an apprenticeship.
