MEM30305 - Certificate III in...SM TAFE has been named one of the Top 50 Vocational Institutions in the Asia-Pacific.
Only one other Australian training organisation, the Melbourne Institute of Technology, featured on the list.
The 2019 Asia Pacific Vocational Schools Top 50 Influential Awards announcement was made at the Education Forum for Asia Annual Conference hosted by the Chinese Higher Education Society and the Chengdu Municipal Government late last year.
The award recognises training institutions that have made outstanding contributions in the cultivation of technical and skilled personnel in the Asia-Pacific.
SM TAFE was recognised for its work with ICRO and the Zhejiang Provincial Government to successfully roll out the TAFE model across the region. This involved working on in-country delivery of the Advanced Diploma of Engineering with the Zhejiang Institute of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering and establishing professional development programs with Ningbo Polytechnic, Wuhan Technical College of Communications and the Zhejiang Institute of Economics and Trade.
ICRO collaborates with overseas educational providers, such as SM TAFE, to promote high-quality foreign educational programs, resources, undergraduate and postgraduate programs as well as conferences and study tours.
To further strengthen the relationship between SM TAFE and ICRO, a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed between the two organisations today. The MoU will progress new training opportunities in China in 2020 in Aged Care, Individual Support and Remedial Massage.
WA has long-standing ties with the Zhejiang Province through its Sister State agreement, which has been active since 1987.
In August 2019 the McGowan Government launched WA's first Asian Engagement Strategy which will support the relationships, knowledge and skills necessary to grow trade and investment with Asian markets, diversifying and expanding the State's economy and creating jobs.
