Hear from our students

We couldn’t be prouder of our students. Hear from our past and current students on how Federation TAFE helped them find their purpose and confidence to succeed.

"I've done three TAFE courses! The first one was in fashion design. Then I did a certificate in Patisserie and now I'm studying a certificate three in Horticulture.

I find TAFE is great because it's affordable, it gives you practical hands-on skills, and it's easy to engage with the teachers because they're there if you have any questions, they really guide you through it. It's a great adult learning environment."

"I hope my studies will lead me to a successful hairdressing career, meeting new clients and building everlasting relationships like I have seen with my boss who has been in the industry for 36+ years.

I would love to be known as a hairdresser who takes pride in their work and produces hair that people are wowed by."

"I never really knew what I wanted to do, nothing consistently anyway. The only career that interested me was being a Park Ranger so I found the Diploma of Conservation and Land Management.

Once I was at Fed TAFE there was no looking back. The teachers were always there to help and I felt as if I wasn’t just another number to them."
