That's why the three campuses will benefit from the installation of contemporary digitally enabled virtual teaching and learning spaces at those campuses.
TAFE NSW regional general manager Belinda Mackinnon said the initiative would do wonders for the students.
"This investment in world-class connected facilities will link local students with industry qualified TAFE NSW teachers connecting from delivery spaces, including specialist facilities able to livestream practical demonstrations across the state," Ms Mackinnon said.
"For example, a student studying veterinary nursing in Goulburn could enhance their learning experience by connecting to live virtual sessions hosted by a TAFE NSW teacher from another region or city, who specialises in the use of specific equipment or techniques.
"This means more flexible training options to meet growing skills demand across the region in industries including; health, screen and media, construction trades, hospitality, and tourism.
"Teachers at TAFE NSW Goulburn will also be able to train students all over NSW, sharing their industry and region expertise using upgraded delivery facilities, purpose-built to teach virtually."
Member for Goulburn, Wendy Tuckerman said it was good see a lot of work being put into TAFE NSW.
"This investment forms part of an initiative to build 200 high-tech, modern learning spaces to support virtual learning across TAFE NSW campuses by May next year," Mrs Tuckerman said.
"This initiative will expand and enhance access to training, allowing more students to live and learn in their own communities, while gaining access to the skills they need to be work ready."
Workshops, kitchens, and laboratories will also be fitted with technology and equipment to support live practical demonstrations.
