The summer holiday workshops were started by
Coral Cooksley, RCDC’s marketing manager some three years ago as part of its
branding exercise and the workshops also serve as a potential student
recruiting channel. These workshops target Year 10 students in
Australia and
approximately have approximately eight participants per workshop. RCDC
usually sees two or three participants sign up for full time programmes.
The workshops are advertised with flyers at metropolitan & regional careers
markets, through careers advisers, RCDC website & other relevant websites,
as well as direct e-marketing campaigns
