VET Info Notes
This course has been replaced by a new (AQF) course 7085 Certificate I in New
Opportunities for Women for the year 2000 and beyond. During the transition,
this old course (7089) may be extended in accreditation by TAC (for year 2000
only) to allow colleges to phase out current students or due to colleges being
committed to deliver the old course for year 2000, as resource agreements may
have already being signed of by WADTE for year 2000 delivery.
It is essential that staff delivering this course:
-have a demonstrated commitment to improving women's employment, vocational
education and training
-have experience working with women's groups
-have subject experience
-teach from a women's perspective so that women's past experiences are validated
-have attended appropriate staff development endorsed by the Women's Bureau.
