Currently completing her third qualification with GOTAFE, Hannah has built a rewarding career in early childhood education, all while studying online and working full time.

“When it came time to choose a VET course, I thought early childhood would be a good area to go down, and I’ve loved it ever since.”

Starting with a Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care (CHC30121) through VDSS while still at school, Hannah transitioned seamlessly into full-time work after graduation.

She’s now completing her Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care (CHC50121) online while working at Kialla Children’s Centre.

“Learning online means I can use those skills in the workplace straight away,” Hannah said.

“The trainers are really supportive and always want you to succeed.”

With flexible study options, practical experience, and personalised trainer support, GOTAFE helps you turn your passion into a career.

With GOTAFE by your side, YOU’VE GOT THIS.
