Webinar overview

It takes a village…

We often hear this saying in relation to raising children, but the same concept applies when it comes to effective VET student support.

Each person within the RTO is a potential touchpoint for students and therefore, the issue of “student support” necessarily becomes an organisation-wide approach.

In considering what this might “look like” in practice, this session will unpack key elements of student support needs and align to those identified in NCVER’s research into the same. We will explore how organisational culture underpins successful operationalisation of an effective student support framework, and why a shared responsibility by RTO staff is necessary to ensure learners are supported throughout their journey.

Walk away from this session with ideas for what your organisation can do to integrate the responsibility of student support across all roles in the RTO.
