About The Role:

NG Central School isn't your conventional school. Instead, we are on a mission to provide holistic, personalised education and wellbeing support for young people seeking an alternative to the mainstream system.

Our PRACTICAL approach to learning sets us apart and we have a huge focus on vocational education and training.

We are looking for Trainers and Assessors to take our VET courses to the next level across Construction, Horticulture, Hospitality and Retail. You will be delivering high-quality vocational education and training that gives our students real-world insight into the skills they'll need in the workforce.

We want passionate, experienced people who are ready to roll up their sleeves to help our young people learn and thrive. If you want to use your skills to make a genuine impact, this is the opportunity for you!

In return, you'll be part of a tight-knit, energetic group of educators who share a collective vision. Plus, you can focus on your strengths as a trainer, with administrative support on hand for all things documentation and compliance.

Duties:
● Program, plan, deliver and assess a Certificate II or III qualification to Years 11 and 12 students in a hands-on, fully equipped training environment that simulates a real work setting
● Gather evidence and complete administration to assist students in gaining their qualification (with the help of a skilled administration team!)
● Facilitate a weekly non-accredited ‘Try a Trade’ double period for Years 9 and 10 students to develop their technical skills and work-readiness
● Come up with well-structured and engaging activities, projects and training delivery methods that resonate with NG's student cohort
● Stay abreast of current and emerging industry trends to ensure our students access the most updated, relevant training possible
● Undertake workplace visits for Years 11 and 12 students completing their 35-hour Structured Work Placements

What Our Ideal Candidates Look Like (Essential Criteria):
● Qualification in Construction, Horticulture, Hospitality or Retail (or willingness to upgrade/obtain)
● TAE40122 Certificate IV in Training and Assessment (or willingness to upgrade/obtain)
● Minimum of 3 years working in your respective industry
● Comprehensive knowledge and passion for your trade subject
● Strong commitment to quality training and assessing best practices
● A team player with a high level of flexibility and an adaptable, solutions-focused approach
● Genuine positive regard for and ability to build rapport with young people who have experienced barriers to engaging in school

More about NG Central School:

We are an accredited non-government, special assistance school for students in Years 9 - 12. We are co-educational and are not politically or religiously affiliated.

NG believes that every young person deserves a purposeful future, and that school should be a pathway to achieving this. But with more than a decade of supporting vulnerable students under our belts, we know that not everyone thrives in traditional, mainstream settings.

Our school offers a genuine alternative for young people who have complex academic, behavioural, neuro-developmental and/or welfare needs. We take a practical and skill-based approach, combining flexible learning, vocational training, wellbeing programs and wrap-around support.
