A former Federation Training administration worker has attacked the current state of the TAFE’s Fulham campus. Federation Training had continued to advertise health and aged care courses, but Ms Howard said locals would miss out on opportunities in Sale. She said a senior Federation Training employee had recently spoken publicly about how the health sector was growing, and face-to-face classes were being offered. “[He was] spruiking the redevelopment of the Traralgon hospital, the Bairnsdale hospital, the Warragul hospital; he didn’t mention anything about Sale hospital, nor, which really shocked me and made me think how much he is communicating with businesses in Wellington Shire, [is] that there’s a brand new nursing home which has just advertised 160 jobs,” she said. “Where are they going to get their skilled workforce from? “He didn’t even make mention of the aged care sector in this area aged care workers, hospitality like cooks and cleaners, nurses, rehab why is Sale neglected?”
