really get to know your lecturers and tutors and<br />
classmates.<br />

and dedicated tutors produce graduates who<br />
are set for success and can easily and quickly<br />
make the transition to work. employers say<br />
they receive real value from employing WelTec<br />
graduates and having students on site for work<br />
experience.<br />
Regular practical application of the<br />
topics covered in the classroom<br />
means WelTec graduates are work<br />
ready. These young people are able<br />
to add value straight away.<br />
