This episode of the People of VU Podcast comes at a critical time for the tertiary sector.
Just a week ago the federal government was deep in discussion at the Jobs and Skills Summit. You will hear me speak with Anne Howard about the potential outcomes for Vocational Education and her views on what more can be done.
Anne is Victoria University Polytechnic’s Executive Director of the College of Education, Skills and Jobs. She is incredibly passionate about language, learning and setting people up with the skills to succeed. I discovered that her career has traversed regional Victoria, metropolitan Melbourne and industry — with her role as ‘educator’ enriching all she does.
