WHY

We aim to bring out the best in you through our applied learning approach and by focusing on your passion. There are four key areas that define our approach:

› An individual approach for each student through our ‘one teacher’ to ‘one class’ model

› Learning directly from industry experts

› Getting outside of the classroom and learning by doing

› Placing equal importance on the development of key skills and personal attributes whilst balancing academic outcomes

WE WALK ALONG SIDE YOU AND INVEST IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL JOURNEYOur ‘one teacher’ to ‘one class’ approach allows our teacher/trainers (teachers) to take on a true mentoring role, where they get the time to know you and your individual aspirations. They take the time to support you as you learn through your own experiences and define your own journey.

Once we establish your career goals, we’ll identify and support you to source appropriate industry placements to help you get real world skills and training.

You will be supported to develop an individual career plan which encourages you to see opportunities that will develop the skills necessary for your future pathway. You will also develop a professional portfolio of your experiences and achievements specific to your career pathway.

We develop areas of study and curriculum with our industry partners so that you learn how to do the jobs of people already working in the industry, as well as have the opportunity to be involved in industry experiences you won’t find anywhere else.

WE GET OUTSIDE OF THE CLASSROOM AND LEARN BY DOINGYou will learn in real workplace and community settings, directly from industry experts. You may get out of your comfort zone and make mistakes, but this is where the real learning takes place. Don’t worry, we will support you all the way.

Through our industry-based learning approach, you will acquire the skills that employers need and want. We have tailored our engaging curriculum to meet the individual requirements of each student. We’ll equip you with transferable skills that will help you climb the career ladder.

DEVELOP THE SKILLS THAT REALLY MATTERWe know from our connection to industry the key personal qualities and transferable skills that they are after. We place as much importance on developing these as academic progress.
