MINISTER FOR EDUCATION AND TRAINING
LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY QUESTION
Question No. 511
Canberra Institute of Technology - Fitting
and Turning Courses
MR HUMPHRIES: To ask the Minister for Education and Training -
(1) How many positions were offered in fitting and turning courses at the Canberra Institute of Technology in 1992.
(2) How many such places will be offered in 1993.
(3) How many staff were involved in teaching fitting and turning courses in the Canberra Institute of Technology in 1992.
(4) How many staff will be involved in teaching fitting and turning courses in the Canberra Institute of Technology in 1993.
(5) Will any courses at the Canberra Institute of Technology be offered in 1993 through course work conducted outside the ACT.
MR WOOD: The answer to the members question is as follows:
(1) There were no new positions offered in 1992. However fourteen students were able to re-enrol to complete stage 3 of their technical training at the Institute.
(2) The Institute did not offer any new places in 1993. Information obtained from the industry indicated that there would be insufficient numbers to justify running the course considering it is offered in stages over three years and there is generally a drop in numbers in stage 2 & 3.
(3) There was one part-time staff member involved in teaching fitting and machining in 1992.
(4) There are no officers specifically employed to teach fitting and machining.
(5) The School of Engineering will not be offering trade training in fitting and machining as students now enrol at Goulburn. The School will continue to support other areas of the Institute in regard to minor fitting and machining servicing.
