Background
The TAFE One transformation is a program detailed within
the TAFE NSW Strategic Plan for 2016- 22. The program
has far-reaching effects aimed at overhauling TAFE NSW
& will review everything from real estate, to offerings, to
the cost structure & employment models.
One TAFE NSW is an exciting
modernisation program that aims for a
sustainable & innovative future, to provide
higher quality learning & training for our
students
TAFE NSW Strategic Plan
2016-22
Part of this process involves TAFE calling on consultants
to advise on both the establishment of outcomes &
metrics as well as how TAFE should be developed as a
sustainable enterprise. You & your team are one such firm
who will be building & reviewing current TAFE practices &
developing for review proposals. Your team specialises in
transformation of educational institutions specifically
around business course & so your efforts will be limited to
this area.
