How can I talk to a Welfare Officer?
You can book an appointment with a welfare officer during business hours at 13 TAFE (13 8233) or email at studentsupportservices@bendigotafe.edu.au. There may be other services you can access if this type of support is not right for you. Contact Student Support Services if you are unsure.
All campuses offer these services face to face, online, or by telephone.
