I’m moving house soon so I’ve also been moving my posts. I have removed a few things also elsewhere.
RSVP HSA Graduation
After completing my vocational course at Careers Australia I received an invitation letter from them. I already knew the event was going to happen though. This was one of the events I wanted to add to my imaginary calendar. I just came home from the graduation and am now writing my thoughts about it. Probably the highlight of the afternoon was meeting with the CEO of Careers Australia Group, Mr Walter Gilmore. He asked about the good and the bad of it all. I am not the type of person to hide anything, but I’ll keep our conversation confidential. I like to be honest with my learning experience. Overall it was a positive outcome. I met a lot of nice people and glad to have studied at Careers Australia. It is quite different to university because the units are based on competency and not on a grading system. It was almost as interesting as high school.
Gift HSA Graduation
Not only have I already received my Certificate III in Health Services Assistance, Careers Australia prepared gifts to all the students that came to the graduation. There were photos taken also. There’s a fair bit of history from the building that they stand on. Careers Australia is relatively quite new in terms of business years. The receptionist was pretty excited also to have been promoted, but Amber stayed downstairs. I believe there are five levels in the building. Two elevators that run up and down most of the day. The graduation was held on the third floor. We met a lot of the staff, but it would have been awesome to see some of our missing educators. There was plenty of finger food to eat. I saw most of the students from group 5. There was a colleague who worked today, but still managed to show up later.
Max HSA Graduation
I received a fair bit of support from Max Employment in Oakleigh. It was their idea to get me hooked into the course. They actually preferred Aged Care, but I chose HSA. My consultant Maureen had a friend who worked in Careers Australia. I saw a glimpse of Scott poking his head through the doors. The key staff I knew at the graduation was Rhonda, Shaun, Michelle, and Cynthia. It was a private function, but nevertheless a promotional opportunity for Careers Australia. I may find myself volunteering and also working in a hospital later on. I’ll reveal more when things become more concrete. I’m also in the middle of moving house. I’ll say farewell, but not goodbye to Clayton. Over 20 years living in the same suburb was not too bad.
