​Complaints and feedback

We want to hear from you!

Your satisfaction as a student is super important to us at North Metropolitan TAFE.

We really appreciate your feedback (positive and negative) and  complaints because they help us improve. 

What is the difference between feedback and a complaint?
  • Complaint is when you are unhappy with a service or product and would like us to fix or resolve a problem. 
  • Feedback may be a positive compliment or negative comment about a service or product. Feedback does not necessarily require a response but will be acknowledged.
