Angela Miller - Adult Tertiary Preparation
"With higher ambitions in mind, I decided to enroll at Gold Coast TAFE in an ATP course as I knew it would be good preparation for university.
"I knew completing the course would take a lot of commitment and I had to restructure my whole life so that there would be a balance between study and important weekend time with my family. I am delighted as I have been accepted into Griffith University doing a double degree in Primary school teaching and human services."
