Swinburnes Administration

• All TAFEs have a different set up. Swinburne
  has decentralised administration model. The
  majority of administration of Apprentices
  Trainees is conducted within the Departments.
• Swinburne has spent time with stakeholders to
  ensure processes are streamlined.

• Students undertaking VCAL or VCE at Swinburne are
  not eligible for SBNAs as they are not enrolled
  under the relevant Education Act.

  VCAL Coordinator? If Training Contract signed

Issues cont.

• Enrolled in VET then convert to SBNAs. Enrolment
  issues.
• Enrolled in SBNA group with no employer, at what
  point do we draw the line in the sand.
• How do we deal with the ones-Painting
  Decorating, Food Processing (Wine).

7
Issues cont.

• The uncertainty regarding what marks a student is
  entitled too is complicated and usually second
  hand information.
• VASS requirements for result entry timelines do
  not correspond with QLSsystems regarding cut off
  periods within TAFE. This creates problems for
  the coordinators as they have to make decisions
  and judgment calls regarding result entries in
  October, which is two months before the cut off
  point for TAFE result entries.
