Koorie Student Support

Our Koorie Student Support Officers are available to support our Koorie students by developing specific education and training programs to suit individual needs. The Koorie Student Support Officers will assist you to transition into SWTAFE and help you find your way around campus.

Koorie Student Support Officers service all campuses and are available to assist with:

• Support in the enrolment process.
• Information about fee payments and concessions.
• Choosing the right course to help you work towards your career choice.
• Essay and assignment writing and learning basic computer skills.
• Referrals to other support agencies.

Our course information and advice services are available to all current and prospective students. Groups or individuals who require information sessions for course information should also contact the education pathway team for further information.
