Higher education reform

Higher education reform Higher education reformPosted October 13, 2011, by Helen Isbister A review of our higher education system is set to be released for public discussion in mid-December and it could revolutionise the way we view TAFE institutions and universities. The review, chaired by former University of South Australia vice-chancellor Denise Bradley, will advise on the funding of higher education, student income support and research capacity. However, it will be their advice on the boundaries between university and other tertiary education that are likely to have the most resounding effects. Its anticipated that the review will recommend a blurring of those boundaries and allow TAFEs to offer professional degrees. The review comes as a Victorian TAFE won approval to offer places in a three-year nursing degree, despite an outcry from some in the profession who believe it will dilute the industrys reputation. The Australian Nursing Federation fears the move will drive down wag es and create another class of nurses, who are already separated into degree-educated registered nurses and enrolled nurses. Victorias Holmesglen TAFE is now seeking to win Commonwealth-funded spots for its controversial new degree. The TAFEs CEO, Bruce Mackenzie, says funding would be a step towards a university college which would offer vocational training plus a range of degrees that would focus on applied learning in cooperation with industry. He said the move would create greater diversity and regulate the relationship between the two systems. In 2006, only a third of the 18 000 domestic VET students who were admitted to university received credit for their studies. A new system involving guaranteed credits would boost the number of transfers through a streamlined application process.Education ResourcesTESOL teacher sample resumeTESOL teacher sample cover letterCareer Insider StoriesDavid Berger - Floristry Teacher at TAFE NSWAndy McKilliam - ESL Teacher, South KoreaOya Demirbi lek - Associate Dean (Education) at UNSW Built EnvironmentInterested in becoming a?Human Resources OfficerTeam LeaderHuman Resources ManagerEarly Childhood TeacherCommunity WorkerPopular Career Searchesecu master of educationeducation course in melbournediploma of education in primary through distance educationmelbourne education degreecert 4 education melbourneEducation CoursesBachelor of Education (Primary)Enquire Online Enquire Online Enquire OnlineCertificate IV in Education SupportEnquire Online Enquire OnlineBachelor of Education (Early Childhood Studies)Enquire Online Enquire OnlineHelen IsbisterRelated ArticlesBrowse moreEducationTeachingJobs in education boomingWhether you are interested in teaching kindergarten kids their ABCs or passing on your knowledge of quantitative physics to the next generation of Einsteins, there are plenty of exciting opportunities to snap up in the education sector.Child CareEarly Childhood EducationHigh demand for education and childcare profess ionalsIts not always easy finding the right career path.
