The strength of the VU Polytechnic Skills & Jobs Centre lies in its strong partnerships with community and local industry, linking training and skills development to employment and local economy growth.
Through the development of awareness around community needs and the creation of collaborative relationships with local service providers, the VU Polytechnic Skills and Jobs Centre is able to assist individuals who are in Australia on temporary VISAs to access welfare support, suitable training and employment.
The experience of the VU Polytechnic Skills and Jobs Centre demonstrates a great benefit which comes from developing collaborative relationships with local service providers, enhancing training and career options for otherwise disadvantaged groups, including asylum seekers.
