Entry Requirements

Each student will undertake a Pre-Training Review to determine individual student needs, their ACSF core skills profile and suitability to this course. The results of the Pre-Training Review will be known before the student commences in training and will be used to determine the suitability and appropriateness of the course to the student's needs – refer Pre-Training Review Procedure. The pre-training review for Koorie Learners undertaking training within the Dulka Yuppata Koorie Training Centre is divided in two parts. The first part is conducted by our cultural community expert our Mildura Koorie Liaison Officer.
