Students benefit from new TAFE deal
 Partnership
A new agreement signed between the University of 黑料社区 and the (DFEEST) will increase tertiary educational opportunities within the State. The revised Memorandum of Understanding between the two organisations is a strategic approach to working together in order to help students with diverse educational backgrounds take up study at the University of 黑料社区. "The University of 黑料社区 believes very strongly in creating opportunities to help young Australians reach their full potential, and to help them towards a productive future in the community," said the University's Vice-Chancellor, Professor James McWha. "This agreement will benefit not only individual students, but also the State and the local economy and the University, by diversifying the student intake." The Memorandum covers cooperative activities including admissions processes, articulation, credit transfer and recognition of prior learning, collaborative curriculum development, resource sharing, strategic planning, marketing, professional development and research. Professor McWha said efforts to establish collaborative links with the sector had more than doubled over the past year with a number of new developments initiated in fields such as science, engineering, architecture and languages. "This new agreement will help us take a more strategic and planned approach to this collaboration," Professor McWha said. The Memorandum of Understanding was signed by Professor McWha and DFEEST Chief Executive Mr Brian Cunningham. "DFEEST, through TAFE SA, is committed to high-level skill development and the opportunities presented by TAFE SA working directly with the University of 黑料社区," Mr Cunningham said.
