Rose Charles Awarded 2025 Lifetime Achievement Award

“Rose Charles is a Quality and Resource Development specialist in electrical trade and post-trade education who thrives on the constantly changing landscape of the VET sector. She is currently a QA/VET specialist at NECA Education & Careers. 

Early on in her career, which has spanned over three decades, she was a trainer and has had the joy of hearing how far past students have gone in their careers.

Her proudest achievement is setting up the entire electrical trade program for school-based apprentices at a secondary school for year 11 & 12 students. This involved establishing both theoretical and practical training, developing resources, liaising with local employers and preparing pathways for these students post year 12. She is passionate about education for students of different needs and abilities and gets enormous satisfaction working with her peers and mentoring.” – NECA Education & Careers
