Mental health is a key component of our overall health and wellbeing. It's something that affects us as individuals, and it can also affect our friends, family members, co-workers.
However, a lot of people tend to not feel confident in discussing or sharing on this topic with the people around them.

At LGTI we want to equip individuals with the best skills to start, and be prepared for an open conversation about mental health when someone comes to you in need.

Stay tuned for more details coming soon.

Last week one of our students, Mellanie Sutton, won Trainee of the Year 2022 for the Hunter and Central Coast region! She will now be moving on to the NSW Training Awards being held in September.

Mellanie has been undertaking a Certificate IV in Local Government - Health and Environment, and won this award for her diligence in work and study, her passion for vocational education and training, and her strong belief that VET is just as valid a career pathway as a university degree.

She is now working on a presentation to promote vocational education, showing all the different places it can take you. We are so proud of Mellanie's hardwork and dedication and cannot wait to support her studies and career into the future.

Join us at LGTI and find out why Mellanie is so passionate about vocational education! lgti.com.au
