The move to a blended learning model has instigated the need for more informal learning spaces in TAFE; spaces to stop and prop between classes, with the ability to log in and recap on on-line content before the next face-to-face session.
Funding, politics and governance set very different environments for these two higher-ed typologies. The turnaround for delivery of projects after funds have been pledged for TAFE is typically extremely tight and building projects come in waves rather than a steady stream. In comparison, universities tend to have a much larger pool of their own funds to draw from, allowing development to occur far more steadily in accordance with a long-term master plan.
With rapid advances in both tech and architectural thinking, the education sector may evolve beyond recognition by But will we end up with a single approach for higher education design? Or will TAFE and university typologies never become entirely miscible? Universities are realising the value and appeal of hands-on learning, industry engagement and learning in context.
TAFEs are following the lead of the universities and putting content online, at the same time providing better amenity to attract students to socialise and study on campus.
Both sectors are in continual evolution and as digital learning tools become more sophisticated and effective it is easy to imagine an ongoing dialogue between the sectors about content design and delivery. A cursory view may see universities with more real-world settings and conversely TAFEs with more digital high-tech learning spaces but ultimately, they will remain as distinct entities because they are providing two different kinds of education experience.
TAFE holds the position for industry responsive practical experience and skill development while universities will always value theory and research alongside learning. One thing is certain — all graduates will be operating in a connected and interconnected workforce heavily impacted by AI so both institutions need to help students develop the twenty-first-century skills that will see them thrive in this new world.

As advancements in technology bring about change in the education sector, Architectus Principal Ruth Wilson writes building design must adapt also. TAFE and College courses are more restrictive when it comes to funding. Whether or not funding is available is determined by the type of course and the type of institution you study through.
There are literally thousands of courses to choose from at levels from Certificate I through IV, Diploma and Advanced Diploma and even, in some areas, Degrees. Courses that are often the domains of colleges are typical trades like bricklaying or carpentry, hair and beauty, childcare, mechanical trades, music and performance, nursing, aged care, interior design, animal care, fitness and real estate.
These include business, design, management, health, IT, marketing, accounting and management. TAFE and College can also be a pathway to a University degree with your credits counting towards — and shortening the time for — your degree. So, the world is your oyster when it comes to choices for qualifications. A lot of times it comes down to who teaches the course, what benefits does the institution offer such as internships, work integrated learning, student programs, and more. Any institution is lucky to have you so choose the one that will get you where you want to go while making it enjoyable in the process.
