Community Services, Health and Education

There are many career opportunities in this area and the choices are going to become better for people with the right qualifications. Governments and communities are placing increasing importance on quality training in these significant growth sectors - and that's good news for people with a vocation. Attractive environments for people 'in care' are becoming a community priority, with a trend towards smaller and more technologically sophisticated care facilities. With career prospects mainly centred in education, government administration, defence, health and community services, TAFE SA qualifications in this area can lead to careers as: welfare and community workers; childcare workers and coordinators; natural therapy professionals; enrolled nurses; dental assistants; personal carers; and special care workers.
