Using Online Courseware Catalogue (Resources Catalogue)

The Online Courseware Catalogue contains a range of resources from 1998 up to the latest crop from TAFE frontiers and the ANTA toolboxes. These resources can be copied and modified to suit requirements. See the copyright section for further information.

early resources are often primarily text based and may look a little dated. Some may be from superseded Training Packages. Much of the content in them is still very valid and are available for use or modification.

Your organisation may already be involved with the TAFEVC. Click here to see a list of the current TAFEVC Provider Administrators.
