Student Association

Student Associations provide benefits and education support services to members. Educational support services include inexpensive photocopying, laminating, binding, faxing and other assignment preparation and job search services. In addition, many Student Associations provide support for the physical college environment such as outdoor furniture, shading, landscaping and vending machines by actively raising funds for refurbishments in partnership with the campus management. Student Associations Officers also make an important contribution to college business.

Your member benefits:

Student association members are entitled to various benefits, depending on which campus you attend. You can access your benefits by showing your TAFE card where discounts or events are offered.

While benefits vary from campus to campus, it is generally agreed that the voluntary student association membership provides great value for the annual $20 joining fee, and often much more in tangible and intangible benefits. These services and benefits contribute positively to the education and training of our students when they feel supported in their learning environment and comfortable in their physical environment.

Some membership benefits are:

• Discounts in many retail shops
• Discounts on textbooks and stationery at campus bookshops
• Student rates on organised trips and activities
• Concessional entry to some theatres
• Access to discounted movie tickets
• Many other benefits as provided by your local Student Association
• Having your say in student issues by joining your Student Association Board

 
Please Note: Membership or associate membership of the Association commences on the day a person pays the membership fee and is valid only until the end of that calendar year. No pro-rata discount shall apply.
