- The Certificate 3 in Live Production And Services
commenced about seven years ago.
We established as a centre of excellence in arts.
And basically we offer staging, lighting, audio,
recording in a recording studio.
And we basically provide all the technical experiences
for every event that we do, roughly 120 a year.
We've got partners in the community in events management.
And so we actually do their festivals
and they get out there and get the real hands-on experience,
offering international students
the chances to see the community in a different light,
to work with kids at Redlynch State College
in a more responsible manner.
The pleasure of it is reflecting back and seeing
the skills that the students have gained is multitude.
From lighting technicians
to the skills in how to manage an event under stress and under pressure.
It is an assessment, it's a course, it's a certificate 3.
So they are learning the skills but they're applying them
in real-life events, real-life circumstances.
To do your Bachelor of Audio Engineering,
Lighting, Events Management, Band Management.
Some students have gone off,
literally now have gone off into the industry because of that.
We're linked with JMC Academy, which is in Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne.
I think the most amazing thing for the students
is watching their faces after an event when they've succeeded,
when they've produced a show or a dance show,
or festival, or a carnival.
I think seeing that pride that they have.
And students that sometimes don't usually hang around each other,
watching them shake hands and hug each other in pride
really brings out what it is, and that's excellent.
