TAFE NSW Charter
Vocational training is important for our communities. It helps support local and regional economies. TAFE NSW plays a key role in providing this training across the state. The TAFE NSW Charter sets out our commitments to students, industry and communities. We offer a wide range of qualifications across many industries and sectors.
Importance of our charter
The NSW VET Review’s Interim Report of March 2024 recognises vocational training as an important public good. It also highlights the vital role of a strong TAFE NSW as the central public provider in the NSW VET system.
The TAFE NSW Charter sets out the NSW Government’s expectations of TAFE NSW. It explains our role as the state's public vocational education and training provider. The charter focuses on three key groups: students, industry and communities.
Learners
TAFE NSW provides vocational education and training for the community. We help students build skills, find work and achieve their career goals.
This supports the NSW Government's commitment to make vocational education and training available to everyone in NSW, no matter their circumstances.
Industry
TAFE NSW partners with industry to develop training programs that meet the ever-evolving needs of employers.
We offer courses that support the NSW Skills Plan and help meet the workforce needs of the NSW economy.
Communities
TAFE NSW works with local communities to make sure our training supports local jobs and industry needs. This helps improve outcomes for people in regional and remote areas.
We’re an important part of the community. By responding to local needs, TAFE NSW helps communities grow, adapt and prepare for the future.
