Corina Murphy, TAFE Teacher

I love being a TAFE educator because the work we do everyday matters. I love working with and learning from passionate and professional TAFE colleagues that share a common goal to deliver quality vocational education and training. It's not an exaggeration to say that in many instances students' experiences at TAFE have been transformative. TAFE educators and staff are incredibly committed to providing quality training and support to students, but ever-increasing demands are placing more and more strain on staff already under pressure. The Federal Government needs to re-invest in the TAFE teaching workforce to ensure adequate resourcing to continue delivery of quality vocational education and training.
