The Project Outline

The Higher Qualifications Pathway Project will enable the Advanced Design and Building team to use e-portfolios as a tool for the repository evidence for competence which will then be a “marketable” resource for advancement into industry and/or Higher Education.

E-portfolios provide an easily transportable body of evidence that assists in further education applications and/or employment opportunities.

The Gordon TAFE’s Advanced Design and Building department aims to provide flexible delivery and assessment options for the Diploma of Building Construction.

Students will be required to develop an e-portfolio which will be used as evidence of competence within the Diploma of Building Construction.

The e-portfolio will aim to replicate the industry standards of presentation and content.Completion of the Diploma of Building Construction offers pathways into industry at management level and to Bachelor of Construction Management (Deakin)

The Project begins...

It's exciting to have been successful in gaining funding for the Higher Qualification Pathways Project. The selection process was very competitive with 78 applications vying for 8 funding places and it was great to meet those that had come from all over Australia.

We met at Induction Workshop on Monday 30 January in DFEEST offices in Adelaide.

We now have access to the Mahara e-Skills site and will all begin to share and build a great repository of knowledge.

Noel and I look forward to the networking and connectivity that will undoubtedly be a result of this adventure.
