Before enrolling in a course at TAFE, we suggest you make an appointment with a lecturer at the campus. This will help ensure that you:
- Are enrolling in the correct course for what you want to achieve
- Have the appropriate pre-requisites for the course
- Understand your study obligations
- Know when and where your classes will be delivered.
Enrolment forms are available at the Campus Admin’s front counter. The fees and charges are outlined on the back of the form, along with a range of survey questions. You’re asked to fill in the survey as your answers provide an insight into your learning requirements.
IMPORTANT CONDITIONS - PLEASE READ
- Students must arrange payment of all fees at enrolment. Your full fees are made up of three components. (a) Service fees (b) Tuition fees and (c) Resource fees.
Subject to the Refunds Policy a student is liable for all their fees even if they withdraw.
- Kimberley TAFE may refuse admission to students who have defaulted on the payment of charges and have outstanding debts to the college.
- Students who enrol in assessable or examinable subjects and do not complete assessment requirements will receive a FAIL/HOLD or RE-ENROL result, unless they have formally withdrawn from the subject within 50% of module/unit of competency duration. Students may formally appeal an assessment result.
- Students who withdraw formally within 50% of the time allocation of any modules/units of competency will have no evidence of their withdrawal lodged on their academic statement. Students who withdraw after that date will have the subject name and a RE-ENROL result included.
- Re-enrolment in a subject, which a student has failed twice, is not permitted, unless approval has been obtained from the college.
- Students may not re-enrol in a subject which the student has passed, unless approval has been obtained from the college. Where approval has been given the cost of the subject will be charged at a higher hourly rate.
- Assessment results will not be given over the phone. All results will be posted to your postal address, so please ensure that changes to your address details are made prior to completion.
- At the completion of a Certificate/Diploma/Advanced Diploma the student should submit an 'APPLICATION FOR AN AWARD' in the semester in which the award was completed. Please be aware for Mutual Recognition Kimberley TAFE can give recognition to related qualifications issued by other Australian Registered Training Organisations if supporting documentation is provided (e.g. certified copies of previous awards).
- The College is obligated to provide a student's name and address and enrolment data to the Department of Training, Centrelink and other authorised institutions when requested.
- Students are responsible for the payment of fees. Where an employer has signed an agreement with Kimberley TAFE to pay fees and charges on behalf of students, the college will invoice employers. However, if the fees remain unpaid, students remain liable for payment of all student fees.
- Students are advised that some courses would require them to undertake work placement within the industry. Prior to such placements a student would need to meet certain industry conditions e.g. police clearance, first aid certificate, etc. In such work placements, students are expected to act professionally and meet the normal behavioural standards of the industry (e.g. dress code, work hours, medical certificate if absent from work, etc) to satisfy the competency standards of work placement.
