TAFE

NTEU represents Professional Administrative Clerical Computing and Technical (PACCT) staff employed in Victorian TAFE Institutes, with over 1000 members.

The recently announced Victorian State budget will slash TAFE funding, and will seriously affect TAFE institutes, employees, students and the quality of education.

The budget cuts will:

  • Slash TAFE budgets by up to 33%.
  • Threaten the v ery survival of a number of institutions.
  • Cut up to 1500 jobs.
  • Increase student fees.
  • Reduce opportunities and support services for disadvantaged students.
  • Effectively privatise vocational education and training in Victoria.

The Baillieu government is fundamentally attacking the public provision of education and training in Victoria. The NTEU will not stand idly by and let this happen.

Get involved – help to defend quality education and the staff who work in our TAFE institutes. Join the TAFE4ALL campaign team now.
