Fitting/Machining South West Institute of TAFE

ratingOverall experience

Going to tafe isn't something i'd want to do if i didn't have to do it. On the plus side it's a day off work. But theres lots of minuses because i have to do tests and the teachers are boring. so overall, i'm not enjoying it. but you will have to do it as part of your job.

ratingSelection process and gaining admission

Easy. if you get the apprenticeship you get into tafe.

ratingFunding and scholarships

By funding your sort of paid because your working. But i dont know of any special funding.

ratingYour study experience

There is a fair bit of work. We get tests, some written and some practical. The practical ones are good and I do get why we have to do the written ones. You learn some stuff that's relevant but you will learn more on the job than at tafe. it's just one full day a week for a couple of years. teaching quality is poor though, and i wouldnt ask the teachers for help. ask your mates.

ratingYour life experience

the facilities are ok. there are shops around and you drive here so you can get where you need to go. the students are awesome and a big reason why the course is fun.

ratingJob prospects

we already have jobs. as i said this is part of an apprenticeship.
