One of the great growth areas is Nursing. We have four nurses in each of the two years of training and they have had to pass a challenging interview and preparation process to be accepted into this popular course. They are required to to do clinical work in their vacations but should graduate with a qualification that allows them to be employed after they leave school.
Thomas, just starting Electrotechnology, reports that there is much to learn that is technical but the course is very interesting and should prove extremely useful.
Each of these students attend training for one afternoon a week until about 5.30pm and thus must miss some timetabled periods, the work for which they need to catch up. This together with transport to different remote locations is part of the considerable challenge that faces our vocational students but they are meeting it enthusiastically and reliably.
It is impressive to see these students demonstrating the persistence and initiative required to take up these excellent vocational opportunities.
