College features in new promotional videos

Our students, staff and Trade Training Centre feature in a new series of videos produced by the Western Edge Cluster (WEC) outlining the courses available in 2022.

With subject selection underway, students and families are encouraged to watch the new videos produced by WEC covering several industries such as Health and Community Services, Early Childhood, Beauty, Fashion, Sport and Recreation, and Music. Trade programs in Horticulture, Automotive, Building and Construction, Engineering and Electrotechnology are also included.

Each of the 13 short videos features the trainers who outline course content and career options and students who reflect on their experiences.

The WEC provides quality Vocational Education and Training (VET) programs for secondary school students from Melton, Caroline Springs, Fraser Rise and Bacchus Marsh.

​The Cluster comprises nine government, independent and Catholic schools and aims to provide a wide breadth of learning opportunities for all senior secondary students.

There are 16 VET programs delivered at five schools. Four have industry-specific Trade Training Centres with state-of-the-art facilities to offer Building and Construction, Electrotechnology (Electrical), Engineering and Salon Assistant (Hairdressing).

All programs are completed over two years as part of a student’s VCE or VCAL and provide an additional formal Certificate II or Certificate III qualification. VET programs provide a direct pathway into work, an apprenticeship or further study in TAFE or University.
