The Griffith Student Representative Council is a great resource for students. They provide all kinds of support including, courses to make you more employable, food support for those who are feeling the struggle of the cost-of-living crisis, and social events to help students connect with their peers and expand their network.

Skill courses that are available soon include; Barista courses First aid and CPR training MHFA (Mental Health First Aid) and RSA/RSG courses (Available in Tri 2). These courses do have a fee; however, it is reduced thanks to SRC, and places are limited. https://griffithsrc.com.au/src-courses/
