Today, it's easy for the average person to take for granted all the technological advances that innovators have bestowed upon us. Even when our technology breaks down, it's typically a quick fix. What the average person forgets is that there isn't just technology backing that their devices and appliances, but there are also physical people creating these cutting-edge advances. But without the proper education and training, these innovators – and, in extension, society – could be left at a standstill.
How do we avoid this? By giving our TAFE students exceptional tools which empower them to excel in the workplace even before they leave the classroom.
South West TAFE's goal
At South West TAFE, educators strive to give their students world-class training to prepare them for the industry's most in-demand jobs. The institution is able to boast that they are among the largest and best regarded provider of training in their area. This education pivots around the ability to identify the skills shortage in the region and develop their training programs to address those shortages with the appropriate tools.
Other TAFE schools have always given their students tools to practice with, however said tools often lacked practicality as they were not used in everyday life on the job. A good notion, but South West TAFE decided it was better to start providing students with the tools that real life professionals use in the industry each and every day. It doesn't seem like a revolutionary idea, and yet, other schools are struggling to catch on.
But in order to provide students with top-notch technology, the school first needed to get their hands on said real-life tech and tools. This is where Testo lends their helping hand.
