EARN WHERE YOU LEARN

Victoria University’s Students as Staff program employs hundreds of students each year in on-campus jobs so they can earn where they learn.

The program recruits, prepares and links students to University jobs that range from casual event help at graduation ceremonies, to more specialised roles in technology support, research or marketing that connect to a student’s studies. In some cases, students can obtain academic or workplace learning credit while on the job.

Some 250 students are now on the VU payroll, but the project team expects to more than triple that number by year-end.

Jana Condos, a Law/Arts student, has been a Students as Staff employee since the program was piloted last year. She works for the Student Connections Department, assisting other students with inquiries about enrolments, fees, exams and graduations.

Jana says that being both a student and an employee allows her to understand fi rst-hand the challenges students face when navigating institutional procedures. She is included in staff meetings and her managers often ask for her ideas about streamlining processes. Jana also represented the University to promote the Students as Staff program at a recent national forum on graduate capability development.

“The benefi ts are invaluable,” she says. “I’ve gained new skills in computers and technology, as well as time management, teamwork and customer service. I’m also building professional networks both within and outside the University.”

Besides the advantage of being given fl exible hours around study, student employees are paid University wages that allow them to work less and earn more than they would at an average part-time job.

VU OPENS WORLD-CLASS SPORT CENTRE

Victoria University’s new $68.5 million Sport and Learning precinct offers a world-class environment for sport and exercise research and teaching, with state-of-the-art facilities including a high-altitude hotel, an enormous biomechanics lab and a heat chamber.

The fi ve-storey, fi ve-star-rated green building is now open at VU’s Footscray Park Campus. It provides a fi rst-rate setting for the University’s growing expertise in sport and exercise research and teaching. Researchers are already collaborating within the building’s 26 busy laboratories with organisations ranging from the Victorian and Australian Institutes of Sport to community groups that focus on public health and education.

Researcher and lecturer Dr Simon Taylor said the cavernous biomechanics lab, with its 11-metre high ceiling and door that opens onto a large grass oval, can be used to record and analyse anything from a golfer’s swing or football player’s kick, to a senior’s gait and balance.

“This is one of the best labs in the world for research and teaching,” Taylor said. It allows us to monitor human performance in a more natural setting than most biomechanics labs.”

The sport building is ideal for teaching as well, with collaborative classrooms and informal learning spaces for courses such as exercise physiology, osteopathy, and sports engineering – each part of the University’s targeted excellence in sport and active living.

Lecturers say that sweeping views over the Maribyrnong River valley from the building give the impression that they are actually teaching outdoors.

VU TOPS YOUTH WORK TRAINING

Victoria University is at the forefront of youth work training, offering TAFE certifi cates and diplomas (a common entry point for many youth workers) to a Masters degree in Youth Services Management – the fi rst course in Australia to combine traditional training in the welfare needs of young people, with business skills.

Coordinator of Victoria University’s Bachelor of Youth Work Dr Robyn Broadbent said the area is no longer regarded as an activity undertaken by compassionate volunteers or human service workers, but as a profession in its own right.

Catherine Batty, an Outstanding VU Student of the Year and a Victorian Training awards nominee, decided to yield to her passion for social justice when she enrolled in the Diploma of Youth Work. She has since advanced to the Bachelor of Arts (Youth Work) and plans to do her fourth year in counselling training.

“I wanted to surround myself with passionate mentors, so I chose VU,” she said. “The people I met at Open Day when I fi rst started looking had perspective. They were human and professional.”

Catherine has enjoyed the opportunities offered through the program’s required placements, where she has acted as a workshop presenter in a learner driver education program with Hume City Council, among other roles.

“The requirement of placement hours is different to other university courses and gives students a great feel for the youth sector, as well as making students step out of their comfort zone,” she said.

Next year, Victoria University will offer a new double degree in Youth Work and Sport and Recreation Management for those interested in working with young people in recreation, outdoor education, local government and community services programs.

MASTER CHEF FEVER HITS VU

Students from the School of Hospitality are creating and serving professionally designed degustation menus under the direction of award-winning chefs at VenU, the University’s training restaurant.

At the latest event, held in May, Scott Pickett, executive chef at the award-winning The Point at Albert Park Lake, oversaw the efforts of third-year apprentices in the kitchen as they prepared a four-course dinner with matched wines, while event management students performed front-of-house roles.

A previous Master Chef dinner featured the owner of La Luna Restaurant and television chef Adrian Richardson.

VU Acting Hospitality Program Manager Shawn Vlaeminck said many celebrity chefs viewed working with aspiring hospitality professionals as a way of giving back to the industry since many started at TAFE themselves.

“Events where our students work with famous industry chefs are a great experience for everyone,” he said. “Students experience what’s involved in preparing and producing a large-scale dinner for up to 130 people under the guidance of well respected professionals.”

Ben Sharma is a networking whiz with big dreams of success.

As winner of the CISCO Live 2011 competition, the IT buff beat students from across Australia to become part of the networking giant’s team for a week and work on the CISCO Live event at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre.

“I needed to show them my passion for networking by writing a letter and describing my future plans after my course, which is to be a networking administrator,” he said.

Ben originally enrolled at VU in a computer science degree because of his networking interests, but soon swapped over to the Advanced Diploma of Information Technology (Network Security) when he realised he’d get more of the hands-on training that employers look for.

“I love to troubleshoot hardware issues and get involved in the technical aspects of networking,” he said. “Victoria University provided me with the knowledge and practical skills to be job-ready.”

CASTING THE NET

MELTON CAMPUS A UNITED NATIONS OF ENGLISH LEARNERS

The Melton Campus offers English language courses to a diverse set of new migrants who make up a growing part of the local shire’s population boom.

Nearly one quarter of Melton Shire residents are now born overseas, and many learn English through Victoria University. Its Melton classrooms often resemble the United Nations, with students from up to a dozen countries learning together.

Dhammika Fernando, program manager of AMEP language studies, said many English as a Second Language (ESL) students at Melton are newly arrived migrants eligible for the Federal Government’s 510 hours of free English language classes. But many equally eligible new settlers are not taking advantage of the program, she said.

“We realise there are many more people out there who may think their English is good enough but they need to know there’s so much more they could be learning about their new homeland. They could even take these classes simply to socialise,” she said.

Weekend and evening classes are available to accommodate busy schedules.

MAKE A DIFFERENCE

Help people tackle their alcohol or drug abuse problems by enrolling in Victoria University’s Certifi cate IV in Alcohol and other Drugs.

A job in this fi eld can be very challenging but also very rewarding. VU’s course helps participants develop the theoretical and practical skills required to provide a range of services and interventions for clients with issues related to substance abuse.

Graduates fi nd employment in community-based organisations, residential rehabilitation and outreach services. The one-year course can be studied full time or part time.

BUILDING BUSINESS SKILLS

The Diploma of Enterprise is your fi rst step to a successful business career.

The course focuses on developing a broad range of business knowledge and skills to undertake further study at undergraduate level in business, or pursue a career in business management, accounting and marketing.

The Diploma of Enterprise provides skills and knowledge of Australian and international business cultures, business principles, organisational structures and socio-political-legal operational environments.

Graduates are eligible to receive guaranteed credit into the second year of Victoria University’s Bachelor of Business.

Carpenters and bricklayers are now in such hot demand for the west’s booming construction industry that students are nearly guaranteed a job once they complete their apprenticeship.

Victoria University carpentry teacher Ross Firth said some of the world’s oldest trades are now facing a critical shortage of newcomers which will only get worse as the average age of bricklayers and carpenters continues to increase.

With some 30,000 new houses planned for the booming Melton area over the next few years, students from Victoria University’s 17-week pre-apprenticeship programs in Melton are quickly snapped up.

“We have a backlog of residential builders wanting to employ students, but most want them to have their pre-app before they will take them on,” he says.

After their pre-apprenticeship, students work as an apprentice with an employer for a further three and a half years before they are fully qualifi ed as a carpenter or bricklayer.

“Registered builders can earn very good salaries because they can have a few houses on the go at once,” he said.

Pre-requisites for the program are a minimum age of 15, a love of the outdoors and teamwork, and a good understanding of maths and English.

The construction boom in Melbourne’s west has generated strong demand for allied professions, especially for tilers, who transform unfi nished walls and fl oors in bathrooms and kitchens of homes and commercial buildings.

VU offers a 16-week Certifi cate II and III in ceramics fl oor and wall tiling at its Newport Campus. Graduates can work as apprentices in new buildings, or undertake repair and renovation work.
