graduates intended to either do further study, or travel. Half of all enrolled completed and graduated, so allowing for the above, only 25% of those who started the year were then looking for work as a qualified graduate at the end. And a good number of these required 'attitude adjustment' before being suitable for employment. We saw just 12.5% of enrolments become successful in the technical community. Looking across the whole training landscape, with thousands of kids enroled in SAE, JMC and AIM courses, hundreds in the Uni colleges like NIDA, WAAPA, VCA and Flinders and scores in TAFE courses, what is the cost? Assuming they introduce 12.5% of their graduates to work -- and we know they do not. One of the best technical courses in Australia is the TV production degree at Charles Stuart Uni in Wagga Wagga. They regularly find employment for their better grads, yet they struggle for enrolments against the slew of providers named above. Producers and Directors care not for qualifications, what they want is the bling and dazzle, the glint in the eye and the magic.
