Community Partnerships
For more than 50 years, we have worked with community and industry partners, supporting the growth and enhancement of our students.
Supporting the development of our students
These partnerships promote collaboration that delivers innovation and impact, and helps support the economic, social and cultural transformation of strong regional communities. They allow our students to engage in practical, work-integrated learning to gain valuable hands-on experience.
