Trinity College Foundation Studies (TCFS) has won a Commendation in the Education and Training category of the 2010 Governor of Victoria’s Export Awards, presented at Government House last night.
Currently celebrating its 20th anniversary, TCFS is a special one-year course that prepares around 700 overseas students annually for entry to the University of Melbourne and other leading Australian universities. It is widely regarded as a benchmark for Foundation Studies programs in Australia.
The winner of the Education & Training category was Monash University, which went on to also be named the Victorian Exporter of the Year.
Described as Victoria’s most prestigious business awards, the Governor of Victoria’s Export Awards recognise those companies and individuals that are making their mark in the export arena.
Victoria’s Minister for Industry and Trade, Jacinta Allan, MP, said, ‘The Governor of Victoria Export Awards are truly a stamp of success for winners and commendees alike, providing local and national recognition of export achievements and contributions to our State.’
The Dean of International Programs at Trinity College, Dr Barbara Cargill, accepted the award on behalf of TCFS.
Congratulations to TCFS staff – you all won this award!
