TAFE New England (TNE) has been conducting a review of the structure of its Educational Services. Just prior to the release of a restructure proposal, staff in the Strategy and Innovation Unit were told that they were also going to be included in the review. The proposal initially involved the disbanding of the Strategy and Innovation Unit and the creation of an eLearning team.

Following consultation with members, the PSA(CPSU) lodged a dispute centred on the engagement process for Strategy and Innovation staff as well as the form and content of the change proposal document.

The PSA(CPSU) achieved a fantastic outcome where:

2. TNE and the PSA/CPSU agreed to issue a joint statement to staff about the resolution.
