Sejumi College - Jumpstart program

I received this information about a program on offer at Sejumi College. It is a Cert II and has a Cert II Tourism embedded in it.

For year 11 and 12 students, please be aware that this course will most likely have a cost attached if you have used your VET in Schools Funding.

Year 10 students if you are interested in this course, please speak with Mr Williams, Kelly or me in B13 as it may used your VET in Schools Funding and that will mean you cannot use this funding for other cert II courses you may be interested in. It is really important to speak about this before enrolling in the course if you are interested.
