Student placement testimonial

Bendigo TAFE community services student Cameron Jones completed a placement with our Humanitarian Settlement Services team in 2016.

Cameron shares his thoughts on the experience …

“I was welcomed into the team from day one and encouraged to make contributions and felt supported to participate as much as possible, not only by the settlement team, but by all the staff at BCHS.
