Launch of Swinburne TAA Alumni Chapter
The Swinburne University of Technology Certificate IV Training & Assessment team is excited to announce the launch of an alumni chapter for all graduates, past and present staff, and friends of TAA.
With regular annual activities and communications, the chapter will be an opportunity for you to: network with friends and colleagues, create a community of practise, enhance your professional development, and share your experience and expertise.
Join us for the launch of the chapter, hosted by Executive Director Futures and Performance Sheila Fitzgerald and featuring celebrity comedian
Rod Quantock, with new insights into Learning Styles in Training.
Light refreshments will be served, followed by the presentation.
Rod Quantock is one of the reasons that Melbourne is the live comedy capital of Australia. As a pioneer of stand up comedy, Rod has more than thirty years experience working in cabaret, theatre, television, radio, advertising and the corporate sector. For an old boy, Rod is still doing extremely well, thank you very much. His live shows are predictably box office hits at the Melbourne Comedy Festival and the Adelaide Fringe Festival and he is an evergreen favourite at corporate events.
The truly remarkable thing about Rod is that for more than thirty years he has remained a contemporary stand up comedian, evolving and staying at the forefront of the craft. His contribution to Australian cultural life was rewarded when he received the Individual Award at the 2004 Sydney Myer Performing Arts Awards, putting him in the company of such arts luminaries as Geoffrey Rush, Robyn Nevin, Nick Enright, Lucy Guerin & Paul Grabowsky. That he continues to build new, younger audiences all the time is testament to possibly the most impressive career in Australian comedy.
“A living Melbourne treasure” - The Age, Melbourne
“A gloriously shambling style, punctuated by sudden gags and proposals of Swiftian excess... He is the archetypal wise fool adrift in a dark & dangerous world.” - The Australian
“For sheer cheek and inventiveness, the amazing Rod Quantock must take the honours. Bizarre, fresh, theatrically dangerous, unpredictable” - The Guardian, London
“wit, warmth & aplomb... wise, scary, funny.” - The Age, Melbourne
