TAFEWA also has a partnership with Curtin University of Technology to offer courses through the Vocational Training and Education Centres in Kalgoorlie and Esperance.

Some TAFEWA campuses have computer labs for student use. Computers and printers are also available in the college libraries/Learning Resource Centres for students to use for study purposes. These computers provide access to online databases and the internet. A wide range of software applications found in the classrooms are usually available on college computers.
TAFEWA offers certificate, diploma and advanced diploma courses which can vary in length of study from six months to three years. Courses are very practical and tailored to job requirements. Universities usually offer degree courses which take three or more years and usually contain much more theory than TAFEWA courses. Some TAFEWA graduates later go on to university and many university graduates go to TAFEWA to gain more practical skills to help them get a job.
Flexible learning allows you to study in your own time at your own pace. Some TAFEWA campuses provide extended hours and off campus learning facilities. There are also online training services and don´t forget to check out television station Access 31. To find out more information ask the TAFEWA college that you are interested in studying with.
