Another year beckons us which I trust will be as rewarding and challenging as the previous years! A warm welcome back to all our students and staff to the new year and to Yorke in 2012.
The last few years have been extremely challenging and pivotal to the education industry as a whole given the multitude of legislative and immigration changes enforced by the Commonwealth Government to administer and effectively increase the standards of education in the VET sector. The release of the much awaited Knight report in June 2011 heralded a new beginning in the VET and higher education sector and in conjunction with revised migration policies, have endorsed far reaching and monumental changes to the sector. This has been seen by many in the industry as changes that were long overdue and changes which were necessary to ensure that the sustainability and high standards of Australian Education is met in the VET and Higher Education sectors.
