Firstly, thank you.
A huge thank you to everyone who attended our WSILISGRADS event on Tuesday 19th November. We had a great turn out and feedback from attendees has been very encouraging.

There was also a lot of discussion between of Cert III and Diploma students, which was fantastic to see. Hopefully this helped a lot of you make decisions about next year.
