Virtual Classroom Courses Released!
QAST is excited to announce that two of our most popular courses, Pathway to Profit & the Convenor Course, are now available via virtual training.
Convenor Course
Are you a new convenor who feels like they've been thrown in the deep end? Or an established convenor who's wondering if your tuckshop can be made more efficient? The convenor course is here to help!
We're all in this together! QAST remains open and continues to offer its full range of services.
The QAST office remains open, with all staff working from home and only a phone call or email away to assist tuckshop staff, volunteers and P&Cs/P&Fs/schools with any tuckshop related enquiries you may have. During the next few months QAST will be extending many of our 'member only' services to non-members to ensure all tuckshops are in the best possible position they can be to reopen and continue to provide their school communities with a viable and healthy tuckshop service.
