Support for Students
Course progress
MediQuest monitors students’ attendance at classes in accordance with the Student Attendance and Participation Policy and Procedure. Course progress is monitored and MediQuest provides assistance if the student is experiencing difficulties and not progressing through their course as per the course schedule.
Access to appropriate support services is provided to assist students to successfully complete their course within the scheduled duration. MediQuest may refer students to external sources if MediQuest is unable to sufficiently provide support for student’s learning needs. MediQuest may refer students to external organisations if they are experiencing personal/ welfare issues that are affecting their course progress.
MediQuest takes all reasonable and feasible steps to assist students so they can successfully complete their course within the course schedule.

National Training Complaints Hotline
Vocational education and training (VET) students and employers now have a simple new complaints hotline to report rogue training providers. Assistant Minister for Education and Training Senator Simon Birmingham said that while the vast majority of providers were doing the right thing, a minority were ripping off students, employers and taxpayers.
To contact the National Training Complaints Hotline phone 13 38 73 and follow the prompts.
