Vocational Education and Training (VET)

Our dedicated Sport Coaching students have recently completed their First Aid course as part of their certificate. This comprehensive training gives our future coaches the critical skills needed to ensure athlete safety on and off the field. The course covered essential topics such as assessing emergency situations, CPR and defibrillator use, managing injuries like sprains and fractures, and allergies. Upon completion, they received nationally recognised certification, enhancing their coaching credentials.

A NSW White Card Course will be held here at the college on Tuesday 25 March. 

The NSW White Card course is a requirement to work in the Construction Industry. It will cover the basic WHS knowledge required prior to commencing work tasks within any of the building sectors.

It covers the topics required to demonstrate the knowledge and skills to work safely in the construction industry.
