Our Accessibility Liaison Officers provide personalised support for students living with a disability, mental health condition or medical condition throughout their studies at South West TAFE.
Our Accessibility Liaison Officers can work with you to create an Individualised Support Plan tailored to your needs and course requirements.

Our Disability Transition Officers are available to support students living with a disability, mental health condition or medical condition, along with their schools and care networks, to strengthen and streamline the transition from secondary school to the VET sector.
Your school will continue to support you through your VET DSS studies. SWTAFE will work collaboratively with the student support group at your secondary school ensuring you have a smooth transition into SWTAFE.
Our Disability Transition Officers (DTOs) provide targeted 90-day support to help students transition smoothly and confidently from secondary school into the SWTAFE environment.
Support may include:
The program helps students understand VET expectations, explore pathways and opportunities, identify person-centred adjustments, and prepare for course requirements and student life at SWTAFE.
Learn more about how the DTO program can support you in the How does the DTO program work for me? fact sheet.
