Join the Campaign for Increased Investment in TAFE

Only TAFE can deliver the quality

training and education Australians

need. But for too long TAFEs

across the nation have been

forced to do more with less. New

research shows funding has been

cut and TAFEs are being forced to

turn away thousands of students

as a result. Staff workloads are

rising and budgets are falling.

Now is the time for action.

Send a message to Julia Gillard

and Wayne Swan letting them

know how important it is to

increase investment in TAFE in

this year’s budget. More info

or go to
