Today, we’re shining a spotlight on a local institution that has been serving our region for over 130 years – TAFE NSW’s Corowa Connected Learning Centre.

Located conveniently on Riesling Street, this centre is more than just a place of education. It’s a hub where dreams are nurtured, skills are honed, and futures are built. With a range of courses from certificates to advanced diplomas and even degree level programs, there’s something for everyone. Whether you’re looking to upskill, change careers, or just indulge in a new hobby, TAFE NSW has got you covered.

But what truly sets Corowa TAFE apart? Kelly Ralph, our local contact, sums it up in three words: Customer, integrity, and excellence.

With a dedicated team of five full-time staff, they ensure that every student receives personalized attention. And the testimonials speak for themselves! Many students rave about the supportive environment, with one even saying, “It’s so fun. Great teacher and campus. When I tell people about it, they want to do it too.”

TAFE NSW doesn’t just pride itself on its courses but also on its deep-rooted connection with the community. Kelly loves the small, caring nature of Corowa and feels immense accomplishment in guiding students from enrolment to course completion. In her free time, she enjoys the simple pleasures Corowa offers, like dining out, socialising with friends, and walking her dog.

Looking ahead, TAFE NSW is committed to evolving with the needs of the industry and its learners. Their goal? To remain the leading provider of lifelong learning across NSW. And with a 90% student satisfaction rate and 88% of students recommending TAFE NSW, they’re certainly on the right track.

Lastly, a shoutout to our progressive chamber! TAFE NSW enjoys being a part of it and wishes them all the best.
