·èÂí¸èÎèÐã’s online and distance education service, Swanonline (SOL), has now moved from the grounds of Swan Christian College (381 Great Northern Hwy, Middle Swan) to the ·èÂí¸èÎèÐã Head Office property (Padbury Terrace, Midland) as part of a long-term growth strategy.
A fellowship lunch was held in the ·èÂí¸èÎèÐã Office Training Room on Friday, 2 December 2022 to introduce the SOL staff to the Head Office staff, and it gave Swan Christian College (SCC) Principal Dr Darnelle Pretorius the opportunity to thank ·èÂí¸èÎèÐã Chief Executive Officer Dr Graeme Cross and Dr Martin Bent for their work in making the transition to the new Midland site a seamless process in the last month.
Credit was also paid to SCC Business Manager Dr Ray Bartell, ·èÂí¸èÎèÐã’s Head of ICT Mr Wayne Fewster and the entire ·èÂí¸èÎèÐã ICT team, who have set up infrastructure in the building adjacent to the ·èÂí¸èÎèÐã Head Office.
The office space has been ·èÂí¸èÎèÐã property for a number of years and functioned as a space for the “Joey’s” program (young mothers pursuing academic studies) between 2012-2015 and then as part of the ·èÂí¸èÎèÐã Marketing space for a number of years after that.
The building is also home to the Christian Schools Australia (CSA) office for Western Australia, with Mr Dave Stevens (Executive Officer – WA) and Mrs Jess Kapitola (WA administration & Events) sharing offices next door to Swanonline.
