Hi fellow students...

Hey guys, my name is Amy and I believe I am at least a subject behind everyone haha.
Struggling to work full-time and study full-time   

Where is everyone up to?? I don't think I'll make the deadline....   

Have a great day!

Hi, my name is Jamie. And I have only just been enrolled. Started on the 7th July. And a bit overwhelmed by all that has to be done in 3 months. So I feel I am already behind haha. I don't work I just run a house hold of 6. 4 kids (2 school age) and a hubby who works full time.

Hi my name is Cherry, I work part time for the department of education and am a mum to a little girl called Leila who turned one yesterday! Am still working out how to juggle all my responsibilities and get my study done too : / Seems like we are all in a similar boat here with workloads! hope I can be helpful am just about to finish this mental health one it has been the toughest one yet! Am upto the project stage now.. then two more subjects to finish by next month. eeeekkk

Yay! I'm not the only one! Haha

I have a three year old daughter as well, it's tough isn't it?
I am only 66% through the first subject and have the deadline of next month   

Hi Everyone...My names Maria....oh im so happy we have his forum...im the same as Jamie & started on the 7th of July n freaking out already of how im get this all done (as why im up at 4am going through all the work lol)...im a single mumma of two boys 5&8..i guess when they go back to school it bbit easier...fingers cross >_<

How do you work through your assessments? Work until you have reached 100% of 1 and move on to the next. Or do a bit of every one?

I do a bit of each one. If I get stuck on a question I move to the next one.

Hi fellow students and all-round busy people   Just in regards to completing everything 100% I have left most of mine at 97% because I don't even have a job/volunteer role yet in the industry (just obtained my WWC check actually argh !). Any tips to getting a volunteer role? ....I hope I've navigated my way round this forum i'm such a novice to anything like this. Thanks heaps to the person who started this up (very clever)   

I have two at 97% and submitted one so far. I have the group activity one left and the aboriginal and torres straight islander one... and yes thanks for creating this! I wanted to suggest to them that they put an index in for the reading material so its easier to go back and search for what you are looking for. I hope they do it

Hey all, my name is Kerry.. I'm struggling slightly as well as I have a 7 week old son and I work fulltime!

I'm almost through my first one I have a fair bit before August 26th if I'm going to pass!

How much study do you do a day?
And when do you need to start the volunteer work, and is it just any volunteer work or actually in the youth work area?

I try to do at least an hour a day. In the student portal it tells you more about the volunteer work / vocational placement. I would start ASAP.

I try also to do at least an hour a day, sometimes more and sometimes less. I'm starting my vocational placement this week so I can get it all done.

hi there

hello everyone! im fran I have just started in the course! I have 2 boys ages 26 and 18 looking forward to moving forward and seeing where this takes me...

Hey Cherry,

where about's on the portal does it talk about the vocational part?

Also where is everyone based? I live in Brisbane

I live in redcliffe, and i am unable to find anything in the portal about the volunteer part. I have emailed Kim so hopefully she can help me find it. I kay just be blind or looking in the wrong spot.

Hi

I am a mother of 7 with my youngest being 4 months old. I am currently so far behind and stressing about how I will get all of this done by the date required

RE: the volunteer section, I could not find it either and had to email Kim to get it sent to me

I will email Kim and see if she can email it to me as well. Randomme your not the only one behind. I'm very behind too.

go to your resources in the portal once you have loggen in and then my learning resources and there are options there. the Guide tells you how to start

it tells you how to go about but not really where to go. I work in a primary school and am doing mine there. You could try that...

Finally found it. It wasn't there the other day haha. Oh man how am I supposed to do Voc Placement? I have a full time job in a Tafe

hmm maybe see if you can get your work at the tafe to contribute at all?? Your working with people... and if not i guess looking for saturday volunteering or see if you can take some leave or rdo's :/ so tricky!

Yeah it is tricky. I don't think my work will contribute. Might have to ask Kim to see what I can do.
