Tertiary, Trade & Training
Motion:

“That ICPA Qld increase awareness amongst tertiary training providers of the job opportunities that exist for tertiary education students in the role of Home Tutor/Governess.”

Explanation:

To coincide with the current promotion of careers in education, awareness should be brought to the opportunity of working as a Home Tutor or Governess so that tertiary students studying in the field of education can experience a distance education setting and rural communities. This could lead to positive outcomes with more graduates choosing to take up rural placements and assist families who are struggling to find suitable applicants to fill these positions. In addition to this, the tertiary education student is gaining experience working with curriculum, practical teaching skills, classroom management skills, and many other skills that will transfer to their chosen education career.
