“They were always engaged and asked a lot of questions - students who do this will do better ; it was good to see them have a go. This course helps students when applying for jobs, but it’s more than that; there are life skills and most importantly, knowledge. For instance, we look at the phenomenon of payday lending which can be an attractive but risky prospect for young earners. Students are also introduced to the workings of PAYG tax and make calculations as if completing their own tax returns.”
- Jody R, Teacher, TAFE NSW
For the fourth consecutive year our students have completed the accredited TAFE Certificate One in Financial Services in the Library. This 10-hour course introduces students to consumer credit and provides insights into the world of personal finance and banking. For many it marks the beginning of a long and productive association with the TAFE sector. We acknowledge the generosity and support of the Smith Family in making this course and other programs available to our students and look forward to working together with them in 2019.
