  • Develop effective referral relationships with external agencies to access services that will assist the student to enter training with support, stay in study and to transition smoothly on completion.
  • Contribute to the coordination of existing services the student is accessing by continually engaging with the external service providers who are already in the role of providing case management to the student, including Commonwealth government funded Employment Service Providers and Australian Apprenticeship Support Network (AASN) providers where relevant.
