Wow, a uni could make a heap of cash if they were able to set up a program
like UniSA's
And so could the flight schools that are VETAB accredited, which makes me wonder why it hasn't happened yet. It seems like win win win.. for the Student, Flying school and Uni. The government is OK with paying the universities $40000+ on HECS for hundreds of people a year to do a science or engineering degree so I cant see the fees being a sticking point.( By the way I think their should be entry requirements simlar to UniSA's course as there is with engineering or science degree's)
Searching the foums this fee-help idea has been kicking around for a number of years and has never really got off the ground. Is it political ? is it that ACPET have no idea. Maybe Julia Gillard is about to fix it all with her banging on about overhauling vocational training today.. who would know ... end rant.
