Free TAFE courses on during pandemic

09th Apr 2020

TAFE NSW will provide a suite of 21 fee-free online short courses to assist people across the region who wanted to upskill during the COVID-19 pandemic. The courses will allow people to pursue a new area of study or expand their existing skill sets during these difficult times.
Member for Northern Tablelands Adam Marshall said that the State Government has made it a priority, while the pandemic continues, to do what it can to keep as many people as possible in jobs, or support those currently experiencing unemployment to renter the workforce.
“For some this could mean utilising this period of social distancing to hit the books and learn skills areas like business, computing, social media, administration and writing and personal presentation,” Mr Marshall said.
“TAFE NSW’s website has the list of all the fee-free courses currently on offer and I urge anyone who may be interested to jump online and see if there is something available which suits them.”
The 21 short courses include:
• eMarketing for Small Business;
• Engaging Customers Using Social Media;
• Writing and Presentation Skills;
• Computing Skills;
• Team Leader Skill Set; and
• Administration Skills for Team Leaders.
