Since its pilot in 2019, Holmesglen has been a proud member of Student Voice Australia. We recognise student partnership may look differently in TAFE, so we work with Student Voice Australia to further identify and embed a culture of student partnership in governance nationally.  

Student Voice Australia has been a fantastic network and our contribution to the Good Practice Guidelines of Student Voice Australia has been a great way to share our experience with others joining in their early stages of student partnership.  

Our students are important members of our governance framework and we’re committed to including them in our decision-making practices. The Student Association ensures the voice of the student body is heard and contributes meaningfully to the things that matter most to our students, including:   

• Academic matters, such as course design and delivery

• Service and facilities

• Recreation and social engagement programs and much more.
