Welcome to <strong>2020</strong><br />
<strong>ET</strong> <strong>Australia</strong> provides students<br />
with the skills to be successful<br />
in employment and/or further<br />
studies. Our adult training<br />
college and independent<br />
high school models provide<br />
professional, supportive<br />
and nurturing learning<br />
environments.<br />
Tony Mylan, CEO, <strong>ET</strong> <strong>Australia</strong>.<br />
<strong>ET</strong> <strong>Australia</strong>’s adult training<br />
college has expanded its scope<br />
of registration by adding<br />
disability qualifications to<br />
our suite of programs. Our<br />
reputation with industry has<br />
continued to flourish. We have<br />
once again expanded our<br />
industry partnerships and this<br />
has led to an increase in the<br />
number of direct employment<br />
outcomes our adult students<br />
have gained.<br />
In 2019 <strong>ET</strong> <strong>Australia</strong> Secondary<br />
College (<strong>ET</strong>ASC) reached its<br />
notional maximum number of<br />
enrolments. <strong>2020</strong> will be a year<br />
of building on the cumulative<br />
success we have shared with our<br />
students. We look forward to<br />
2021 when we will be able to<br />
outline more exciting plans to<br />
help more young people with<br />
their studies and employment.<br />
We have just completed a<br />
major IT upgrade at our Wyong<br />
campus and in Gosford for both<br />
the training college and the<br />
school. <strong>ET</strong>ASC now has an IT<br />
centre with 3D printers, a 3D<br />
scanner and new computers that<br />
provide the perfect platform to<br />
teach digital technologies as per<br />
the <strong>Australia</strong>n Curriculum.<br />
Our focus on building business<br />
partnerships on the Central<br />
Coast gives our students unique<br />
employment opportunities.<br />
Please come and experience<br />
why our students are achieving<br />
so highly.<br />
