Ms Foster’s appointment comes off the back of the campus offering students a variety of new courses for semester two this year.
“New courses available for semester two include a Statement of Attainment in Excavator and Dozer Operations and a Statement of Attainment in Introduction to Hairdressing, among many others,” she said.
“It brings me joy seeing new students coming in to enrol and it is rewarding to see the new students studying and interacting in the TAFE NSW facilities.
“It is a really exciting time for Gunnedah as we continue to consult with the community and significantly increase our number of course offerings available in the region to cater for growing demand.”
