As adult learners, TAFE students are responsible for their own learning and while attendance is not compulsory, the requirement to attend classes varies and should be discussed with the lecturer. Students are required to attend at least one class session for each module in which they are enrolled, as well as completing required assessment tasks. For practical subjects, a reasonable attempt should be made by students to attend classes.
Absence is only acceptable when due to illness or other urgent business.
Students who have been absent from class can ask lecturers for any course notes or handouts that may have been distributed.
