FNU’s Vice-Chancellor encourages students to apply for TVET programs as there are 5,000 placements available via TSLB

Fiji National University Vice-Chancellor, Professor Toby Wilkinson has encouraged students to apply for the Technical and Vocational Education and Training program as there are 5,000 placements available via the Tertiary Scholarships and Loan Services.

Wilkinson says they are acutely aware that TVET is critical to the post-pandemic economic recovery.

He says students completing or have completed Year 12 or 13 have the opportunity to undergo Semester 1, 2022 studies in any Certificate III, Certificate IV and Diploma level TVET course at FNU through the 5,000 TSLS placements.

Wilkinson adds students eligible for TSLS-funded studies must have successfully completed Year 12 with a minimum mark of 200/400 or completed Level I and II studies from the Technical College of Fiji or equivalent.

He says FNU’s 2021 Enrollment Drive campaign has garnered strong interest and increasing applications from new students and those returning to complete or up-skill their qualifications at the University.

Wilkinson says students can also visit an FNU campus to complete their registration.
