Certificate IV in Community Services Work

I have always wanted to help people and be an advocate for change. Completing the Certificate IV in Community Services Work has helped me to achieve that.

As part of the course we were required to do 200 hours work in a community organisation. This gave us the opportunity to get some real hands-on experience and through this I was able to gain employment in Community Housing.

Doing this course was one of the best decisions I have made. I now have the confidence and skills I need to work in a community organisation and I have made some great new friends along the way.

The GippsTAFE teachers have been fantastic, they really know their stuff. For me this course is a step along a path to university, but whether you're looking toward further study or a starting point for your career, committing to a GippsTAFE course is the way to go.
