Hospitality, Cookery and Tourism

I’ve learned a lot of things, I get to apply the knowledge and skills I’ve learned from study into my work. Read my story of receiving the AUD$5,000 Regional Bursary

I chose TAFE because it is known for the quality of its courses. I wanted to develop skills that would be valuable for me here and also back in my home country.  I graduated from university back in my country, and I plan to study an international master degree. But in the meantime, I was looking for a more practical and shorter course that would help me with the confidence to go on with my studies.

When I came to Australia to live I didn’t have strong English skills so I couldn’t speak well and I couldn’t understand anyone. I worked in a café as a barista. I watched the chef in the kitchen and he was happy to show me how a kitchen worked. It was from then that I really found my love for the kitchen.

Studying at TAFE is a great life experience in lots of different ways. In a practical sense, you are learning from the best and really equip yourself for future challenges. There are also great opportunities in WA – not only for work but also lifestyle and affordability.
