Student Privacy Policy

Information concerning students is collected and held by the NSW TAFE Commission (having its principal office located at Level 2, 35 Bridge Street, Sydney NSW 2000). The NSW TAFE Commission will also collect personal information concerning students during their enrolment at TAFE NSW including, but not limited to, their attendance and participation in courses and training modules, and academic progress. The information on this form and information that will be collected by TAFE NSW throughout a student's enrolment (collectively "the information") will be used by TAFE NSW or other authorised organisations for the purposes of general student administration, communication, state and national reporting, program monitoring and evaluation.

The information may be disclosed to Centrelink, the Department of Veteran's Affairs, the Department of Immigration and Multicultural and Indigenous Affairs, the Universities Admissions Centre, Office of the Board of Studies and the National Centre for Vocational Education Research (NCVER) and/or an agency authorised to undertake surveys, and in the case of apprentices and trainees, also to their employer and New Apprenticeship Centres.

The provision of this information is not required by law but is necessary for both enrolment and re-enrolment, and in the case of apprentices and trainees, to provide a report to employers regarding a student's attendance and academic performace. Failure to provide this information may prevent TAFE NSW from processing your enrolment and, in the case of apprentices and trainees, meeting the requirements of Registered Training Organisations under the Apprenticeships and Traineeships Act 2001. Information provided will be held securely and disposed of securely when no longer needed. You may correct any personal details provided by contacting your TAFE NSW campus administration or by using TAFE NSW Student e-Services.
