Information forums for people with a disability
August 02, 2006
Where can you get help in finding work if you have a disability? What support can you get if you study at TAFE or university? Hosted by The University of New England, Information Forums will be held in Tamworth and Gunnedah next week to give public access to the latest information on education and employment support for people with a disability.
The forums are organised by the Disability Coordination Officer (DCO) Program in collaboration with the Department of Education and Training. The DCO Program is hosted by the University of New England as a community service to the region.
“The Post School Information Forums are for everyone - members of the community as well as school leavers, parents and teachers,” said Gwen Johnson, the Disability Coordination Officer at UNE [pictured]. “Support agencies are keen to let people know about their services, and we want people to have access to education, training and employment opportunities”.
“These forums will be casual and open to everyone. Members of the public and representatives of relevant organisations will have the opportunity to chat over a cuppa after the forum, if they have further questions. Speakers from Centrelink, Job Centres, TAFE and other support providers will talk about their services and answer any questions,” she said.
“Disability support services, particularly those associated with further education, are constantly evolving. UNE and the Department of Education are addressing a great need by facilitating this process in the New England North West region” said Ms. Johnson.
The Information Forums are:
4pm – 5.30pm at Tamworth UNE Centre, 24 Fitzroy Street on Thursday 10th August; 4pm – 5.30pm at Gunnedah TAFE K Block, Hunter Street on Thursday 17th August.
Forums will also be held in Armidale and Inverell in the next month.
For further information, contact Gwen Johnson at UNE on 6773 2130.
