“Having heard about the Certificate III in Arboriculture through a Wodonga TAFE School Experience Day, I was instantly hooked. I like being outside and I needed a job that wasn’t the same thing everyday, and arboriculture ticked that box.

When I first started, I didn’t even know how to use a chainsaw, now I’ll never forget how to use one. This course has given me more confidence in myself and my own knowledge. It’s not a very common trade, but it’s a fulfilling career path and I’d encourage anyone to look into it.”

• Enrolled Nurse (EN)

“I’ve always had a passion for the health care industry and when I figured out in year 12 that I could do nursing without having to finish the ATAR I decided to choose TAFE as a pathway. I did start off in a Certificate III in Health Services, then decided I want to do nursing as a career and transferred over.

I’m really enjoying it so far. We just finished an aged care placement and that was a really great experience. All the teachers and peers are really supportive and it’s a great learning environment.”
