Subject: [dbaust] Fw: Petition to save Kangan TAFE Auslan courses


Hello all,

You may have heard of drastic funding cuts to TAFE providers in Victoria, aimed 
at treating them as on a par with private education providers.  Not only is 
this likely to have drastic consequences to the provision of disability support 
services but it is likely to lead to the closure of many courses and the loss 
of teaching staff.  One of the consequences of these cuts also looks like being 
the closure of the Auslan sign language courses at Kangan TAFE which have 
provided training from Certificate II to Diploma level in Australian sign 
language and also training to notetakers and support staff.  For those 
interested, an online petition has been organised to be sent to the Victorian 
Premier Ted Baillieu protesting this potential closure and is looking for 
signatures:
