Macquarie Community College recently celebrated its 2019 Staff Recognition Event where we handed out Staff Excellence Awards and Anniversary Awards. See the list of all the winners.
A recent independent survey on student outcomes conducted by the National Centre for Vocational Education Research (NCVER) has found that MCC has seen further improvements in our already strong results of the previous year – with results that are generally better than the national average of all VET providers.
MCC also has strong employment outcomes. Our results show that we are actively and effectively helping our students, many of whom face barriers and disadvantage, progress along a training pathway to employment.
We are committed to decreasing the digital divide in our communities where there are deep gaps in access, affordability and skills in using computers, phones and tablets. A new research report (The Australian Digital Inclusion Index) provides a comprehensive picture of Australia’s online participation to date. Things are improving, however, there is still lots to do.
The latest Community Colleges Australia Report shows that Community Colleges over-perform on almost all tracked measures in reaching vulnerable and disadvantaged students.
They say you can learn something new every day…and you should! This month, we celebrated Adult Learner’s Week at Macquarie Community College.
As the CEO of the College I find that Adult Learner’s Week is a great occasion every Spring to celebrate the Philosophy of the College: “We believe that participation in quality life-long learning is transformational”.
The Term 4 Catalogue is out now. There’s over 20 new courses to try, including lots of Christmas themed courses.
