Did you know that when you enrol in a TAFE NSW course, the skills, knowledge and experience you have gained from your previous learning, work experience and life in general may be taken into account?
This is called recognition.

You must also complete the Enrolment Adjustment Recognition (purple) form and place this on top of your completed application as a cover sheet.
Please remember to keep a copy of all completed forms.
