Federation University shares opportunities at open day

17 August 2022

An open day at Federation University’s Wimmera campus has attracted interest from school-leavers, mature-age students and those returning to the workforce. 

Campus director Christine Brown said the campus opened its doors to about 20 people on Sunday – complementing existing opportunities to view its teaching and learning spaces and discuss study options by appointment. 

It was the campus’ first open day in some years. 

“It was really great to see people face-to-face again and re-engage after COVID,” Ms Brown said. “The key areas of interest were nursing, individual support, community services and early childhood education – all areas that are in-demand.”

Ms Brown said the campus was planning an information session soon for people with vocational experience who were interested in translating their skills into the classroom as a teacher.
