    EARN WHERE YOU LEARN

    Victoria Universitys Students as Staffprogram employs hundreds of students eachyear in on-campus jobs so they can earn

    where they learn.

    The program recruits, prepares and links students

    to University jobs that range from casual eventhelp at graduation ceremonies, to more specialised

    roles in technology support, research or marketing

    that connect to a students studies. In some cases,

    students can obtain academic or workplace learningcredit while on the job.

    Some 250 students are now on the VU payroll, but

    the project team expects to more than triple that

    number by year-end.

    Jana Condos, a Law/Arts student, has been aStudents as Staff employee since the program

    was piloted last year. She works for the StudentConnections Department, assisting other students

    with inquiries about enrolments, fees, examsand graduations.

    Jana says that being both a student and an

    employee allows her to understand first-hand

    the challenges students face when navigating

    institutional procedures. She is included in staffmeetings and her managers often ask for her

    ideas about streamlining processes. Jana also

    represented the University to promote the

    Students as Staff program at a recent nationalforum on graduate capability development.

    The benefits are invaluable, she says. Ive gained

    new skills in computers and technology, as well as

    time management, teamwork and customer service.

    Im also building professional networks both withinand outside the University.

    Besides the advantage of being given flexible hours

    around study, student employees are paid University

    wages that allow them to work less and earn more

    than they would at an average part-time job.

    VU OPENS WORLD-CLASSSPORT CENTRE

    Victoria Universitys new $68.5 million Sportand Learning precinct offers a world-classenvironment for sport and exercise researchand teaching, with state-of-the-art facilitiesincluding a high-altitude hotel, an enormousbiomechanics lab and a heat chamber.

    The five-storey, five-star-rated green building is nowopen at VUs Footscray Park Campus. It providesa first-rate setting for the Universitys growingexpertise in sport and exercise research and teaching.Researchers are already collaborating within thebuildings 26 busy laboratories with organisationsranging from the Victorian and Australian Institutes ofSport to community groups that focus on public healthand education.

    Researcher and lecturer Dr Simon Taylor said thecavernous biomechanics lab, with its 11-metre high

    ceiling and door that opens onto a large grass oval,can be used to record and analyse anything from agolfers swing or football players kick, to a senior sgait and balance.

    This is one of the best labs in the world for researchand teaching, Taylor said. It allows us to monitorhuman performance in a more natural setting thanmost biomechanics labs.

    The sport building is ideal for teaching as well, withcollaborative classrooms and informal learning spacesfor courses such as exercise physiology, osteopathy,and sports engineering each part of the Universitys

    targeted excellence in sport and active living.

    Lecturers say that sweeping views over theMaribyrnong River valley from the building give theimpression that they are actually teaching outdoors.

    VU TOPS YOUTH WORK TRAINING

    Victoria University is at the forefront ofyouth work training, offering TAFE certificatesand diplomas (a common entry point formany youth workers) to a Masters degree in

    Youth Services Management the first coursein Australia to combine traditional trainingin the welfare needs of young people, withbusiness skills.

    Coordinator of Victoria Universitys Bachelor of Youth

    Work Dr Robyn Broadbent said the area is no longerregarded as an activity undertaken by compassionatevolunteers or human service workers, but as aprofession in its own right.

    Catherine Batty, an Outstanding VU Student of theYear and a Victorian Training awards nominee,decided to yield to her passion for social justicewhen she enrolled in the Diploma of Youth Work.She has since advanced to the Bachelor of Arts(Youth Work) and plans to do her fourth year incounselling training.

    I wanted to surround myself with passionate mentors,so I chose VU, she said. The people I met at OpenDay when I first started looking had perspective. Theywere human and professional.

    Catherine has enjoyed the opportunities offeredthrough the programs required placements, whereshe has acted as a workshop presenter in a learnerdriver education program with Hume City Council,among other roles.

    The requirement of placement hours is different toother university courses and gives students a greatfeel for the youth sector, as well as making studentsstep out of their comfort zone, she said.

    Next year, Victoria University will offer a new doubledegree in Youth Work and Sport and RecreationManagement for those interested in working withyoung people in recreation, outdoor education, localgovernment and community services programs.

    MASTER CHEF FEVER HITS VU

    Students from the School of Hospitalityare creating and serving professionallydesigned degustation menus under thedirection of award-winning chefs at VenU,

    the Universitys training restaurant.At the latest event, held in May, Scott Pickett,

    executive chef at the award-winning The Pointat Albert Park Lake, oversaw the efforts of

    third-year apprentices in the kitchen as they

    prepared a four-course dinner with matched

    wines, while event management studentsperformed front-of-house roles.

    A previous Master Chef dinner featured the

    owner of La Luna Restaurant and television

    chef Adrian Richardson.

    VU Acting Hospitality Program ManagerShawn Vlaeminck said many celebrity chefsviewed working with aspiring hospitality

    professionals as a way of giving back to the

    industry since many started at TAFE themselves.

    Events where our students work with famousindustry chefs are a great experience for everyone,

    he said. Students experience whats involved in

    preparing and producing a large-scale dinner

    for up to 130 people under the guidance of wellrespected professionals.

    Ben Sharma is a networking whiz with bigdreams of success.

    As winner of the CISCO Live 2011 competition,

    the IT buff beat students from across Australia to

    become part of the networking giants team fora week and work on the CISCO Live event at the

    Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre.

    I needed to show them my passion for networking

    by writing a letter and describing my future plans

    after my course, which is to be a networkingadministrator, he said.

    Ben originally enrolled at VU in a computer sciencedegree because of his networking interests, but

    soon swapped over to the Advanced Diploma of

    Information Technology (Network Security) whenhe realised hed get more of the hands-on training

    that employers look for.

    I love to troubleshoot hardware issues and get

    involved in the technical aspects of networking,

    he said. Victoria University provided me with theknowledge and practical skills to be job-ready.

    CASTING THE NET

    MELTON CAMPUS A UNITEDNATIONS OF ENGLISH LEARNERS

    The Melton Campus offers Englishlanguage courses to a diverse set of newmigrants who make up a growing part ofthe local shires population boom.

    Nearly one quarter of Melton Shire residents

    are now born overseas, and many learnEnglish through Victoria University. Its Melton

    classrooms often resemble the United Nations,

    with students from up to a dozen countrieslearning together.

    Dhammika Fernando, program manager of

    AMEP language studies, said many English as

    a Second Language (ESL) students at Meltonare newly arrived migrants eligible for the

    Federal Governments 510 hours of free

    English language classes. But many equallyeligible new settlers are not taking advantageof the program, she said.

    We realise there are many more people out

    there who may think their English is goodenough but they need to know theres so much

    more they could be learning about their new

    homeland. They could even take these classes

    simply to socialise, she said.

    Weekend and evening classes are available toaccommodate busy schedules.

    MAKE A DIFFERENCE

    Help people tackle their alcohol or drug abuse

    problems by enrolling in Victoria UniversitysCertificate IV in Alcohol and other Drugs.

    A job in this field can be very challenging

    but also very rewarding. VUs course helps

    participants develop the theoretical and

    practical skills required to provide a rangeof services and interventions for clients with

    issues related to substance abuse.

    Graduates find employment in community-

    based organisations, residential rehabilitation

    and outreach services. The one-year course can

    be studied full time or part time.

    BUILDING BUSINESS SKILLS

    The Diploma of Enterprise is your first step toa successful business career.

    The course focuses on developing a broad range of

    business knowledge and skills to undertake further

    study at undergraduate level in business, or pursuea career in business management, accounting and

    marketing.

    The Diploma of Enterprise provides skills andknowledge of Australian and international business

    cultures, business principles, organisationalstructures and socio-political-legal operational

    environments.

    Graduates are eligible to receive guaranteed

    credit into the second year of Victoria Universitys

    Bachelor of Business.

    Carpenters and bricklayers are now insuch hot demand for the wests boomingconstruction industry that students are nearlyguaranteed a job once they complete their

    apprenticeship.Victoria University carpentry teacher Ross Firth saidsome of the worlds oldest trades are now facing

    a critical shortage of newcomers which will only

    get worse as the average age of bricklayers and

    carpenters continues to increase.

    With some 30,000 new houses planned for the

    booming Melton area over the next few years,

    students from Victoria Universitys 17-week pre-

    apprenticeship programs in Melton are quicklysnapped up.

    We have a backlog of residential builders wantingto employ students, but most want them to have

    their pre-app before they will take them on,

    he says.

    After their pre-apprenticeship, students work asan apprentice with an employer for a further three

    and a half years before they are fully qualified as a

    carpenter or bricklayer.

    Registered builders can earn very good salaries

    because they can have a few houses on the go atonce, he said.

    Pre-requisites for the program are a minimum age

    of 15, a love of the outdoors and teamwork, and a

    good understanding of maths and English.The construction boom in Melbournes west has

    generated strong demand for allied professions,especially for tilers, who transform unfinished walls

    and floors in bathrooms and kitchens of homes and

    commercial buildings.

    VU offers a 16-week Certificate II and III inceramics floor and wall tiling at its Newport

    Campus. Graduates can work as apprentices in new

    buildings, or undertake repair and renovation work.
