Alana was paid to learn, paid to grow 🍎🌟

Making the leap from nursing to teaching could understandably feel daunting, especially after years of shift work. But for Alana, the Paid to Learn program at TAFE NSW has opened the door to an exciting new chapter.

Alana shared, "The Paid to Learn program has been one of the best challenges I’ve taken on. I’ve met some wonderful people who understand what it’s like to balance study, work, and life. The support from my colleagues at TAFE NSW has been incredible, and since starting the program I’ve realised just how many people are willing to help you succeed."

Now balancing a future in teaching while staying connected to the nursing industry, Alana is embracing every opportunity to learn, grow and inspire the next generation of nurses. 📚🩺

The Paid to Learn program allows you to complete the mandatory Certificate IV in Training and Assessment (TAE40122) in just 14-weeks to ensure you’re classroom-ready, all while getting paid the equivalent of a full-time teacher’s salary. 🎓 💼

Thinking about a career change? Graeme is showing what's possible 💆😌

After spending more than three decades in corporate finance, Graeme enrolled in the Diploma of Remedial Massage (HLT52021) at TAFE NSW - Loftus to pursue a more active and meaningful role helping people improve their physical recovery and wellbeing.

His decision was inspired by his own recovery journey following back surgery and years of participation in sports including cricket, water polo, running, golf, skiing and open-water swimming.

"After more than 35 years behind a desk, I wanted a career that kept me active and allowed me to genuinely help people." 🏃 🤲

After gaining practical experience through the TAFE NSW student clinic and combining years of personal experience with formal training in anatomy and massage therapy, Graeme is now working in the industry. He credits the hands-on training and strong industry reputation of the TAFE NSW Loftus program with helping him make a successful transition into his new career.

"The clinic environment and teacher support at TAFE NSW have been invaluable in building my confidence and real-world skills."

Graeme is embracing an exciting new chapter while helping others on their own recovery and wellness journeys. 👏

Harley is building the foundations for his own business 🔨🏠

Harley is a third-year carpentry apprentice at TAFE NSW - Muswellbrook, and he’s close to the finish line. His journey began when a family friend offered him an apprenticeship, setting him on a path into the trades and enrolling in a Certificate III in Carpentry (CPC30220).

What Harley enjoys most about carpentry is the variety. “It covers such a wide range of skills and there’s always something different to do. As a tradesman, there is always work, and I really enjoy what I do.” 🤩

Some standout moments from his studies include completing scaffolding and working at heights modules, as well as the classroom environment. “I really enjoy the classroom environment. The teacher keeps things engaging and lets us have a laugh, and I have a great time with the group.”

With his qualification in sight, Harley is focused on getting his ticket and one day running his own business. 👷‍♂️💪
