      Harry Gibbs

      “Training at Bendigo TAFE has been amazing – from the teachers to the students everyone is super helpful and supportive.

      Pina Teker

       “When I studied at Bendigo TAFE, it was more about what I really enjoyed doing and out of my life experiences, what I really wanted to do in terms of my passion. Bendigo TAFE having quite a lot of connections in this field, enabled me to follow that path. It was fantastic to do what I wanted rather than what was expected of me.”
