| TAFEWA (Technical And Further Education Western Australia) colleges are training institutions that are funded by the State Government of Western Australia. They provide courses for vocational education and training, apprenticeships and traineeships, support for workplace training, and commercial courses for business and industry.
Courses offered at TAFEWA provide students with practical skills that are transferable to the workplace. Most TAFEWA courses are based on national competency standards that are set around industry training packages. These packages are designed to produce a nationally consistent curriculum and levels of training so that students receive the same standard of training no matter which TAFEWA college they attend.
The content of courses run by TAFEWA are vocationally orientated and traditionally require students to undertake practical placements in the workplace. This aspect to TAFEWA courses provides employers with the knowledge that TAFEWA graduates have practical experience in applying their skills.
TAFEWA works closely with industries and businesses and TAFEWA course content is developed and reviewed in consultation with industry to ensure student training consistently meets the skills needed in the workplace.
There are hundreds of full-time and part-time courses offered by TAFEWA which lead to qualifications ranging from Certificate I – IV and up to Diploma, Advanced Diploma and Associate Degree level. You can also complete pre-apprenticeships and the training element of apprenticeships and traineeships.
