Terry White is a past Training Manager in our organisation who held Vocational Education and Training in the highest regards.
The WDEA Works ethos is about providing opportunities to people in the communities we service. This is something that Terry was very passionate about. The past two years of COVID has taught us so many things but most of all it has taught us that the vulnerable people in our community need our care more so than ever. Our children, our ageing population and those in our communities that have barriers due to a physical or mental impairment. These are the course areas that we as a registered Training organisation specialise in as a result of the dedication and vision that Terry saw.
We also identify that there are people out there that would make exceptional careers in these industries but need a kick start, so we would like to extend the invitation to those that believe they would be a worthy recipient of this scholarship.
