IAM Identity Access Management: importance in maintaining security systems within organizations
No full textIdentity and Access Management proposes a web service that assists in controlling the entire work through secured ways. This research study has been started to highlight the importance of IAM by discussing its roles, characteristics, advantages and disadvantages. It is a framework comprising processes, policies, and the latest technologies, allowing the organization to monitor digital identities and control exclusive access to follow information based on user data. The IAM component proposes an approach of centralized user management, account management console, authentication approaches, and so on. In this research work, roles and key components of IAM have been discussed with all types of possible challenges. Furthermore, this research will help readers and future researchers easily identify the importance of IAM in maintaining security systems within organizations.Computing and Information TechnologyHolmesglen InstituteVictorian Institute of Technolog
Machine learning practices in accounting and auditing
No full textJournal articleIn the current technological era, Machine Learning applications are becoming popular every day. This research paper provides information about the effectiveness of the ML technique in accounting as well as the auditing process. To get proper results, different ML libraries are utilized, concluding seaborn, matplotlib, NumPy and so on. In the introduction section, the research purpose and this research objectives have been developed, through which the entire research process will be developed. “Logistic Regression Machine Learning Model” is built. Literary sources have been analysed in the literature review section, through which it can be easy to gain different perceptions based on the research context. The effectiveness of different types of machine learning algorithms in accounting and auditing has been evaluated properly. To develop a knowledge level, it is important to increase proper attention, and this research paper will provide proper information based on ML effectiveness.Computing and Information TechnologyHolmesglenVictorian Institute of Technology (VIT)Navsari Agricultural Universit
Vocational Education and Training (VET) System and social justice in Australia
No full textThis document is a conference poster and is not available from this repository. Please contact the author.Vocational Education and Training (VET) plays an important role in Australian educational system. VET system is provided in colleges, Technical and Further Education (TAFE) training institutions, private registered training organisations (RTOs) and community-based adult education centres [2]. The main purposes of VET are improving people's skills before they enter workforce or upskilling them after they entered the workforce. In this paper, we discuss the disadvantaged groups in Australian society and in the VET system and how participation in VET system improves the life chances of people in these groups. Also, we discuss the VET funding policy and the social implications of current Australian VET and lifelong learning policy towards the disadvantaged groups.Computing and Information TechnologyHolmesglen InstituteInternational Conference on Teaching, Assessment and Learning for Engineering,Auckland, N
Comparative analysis of Mamdani, Larsen and Tsukamoto methods of fuzzy inference system for students’ academic performance evaluation
No full textThis is an open-access article distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution Liscense 4.0Over the last few years, the use of the fuzzy logic technique for evaluating performance in the teaching-learning process is growing rapidly. In this research work, three different fuzzy inference methods: Mamdani fuzzy inference method, Larsen fuzzy inference method and Tsukamoto fuzzy inference method have been proposed for students' academic performance appraisal for multi-input variables. To obtain a degree of satisfaction, the Triangular membership function is used. The results of experiments showed the best fuzzy inference method among Mamdani, Larsen and Tsukamoto. We have also compared the results with the existing statistical method.Centre for Cyber Security and Digital Information TechnologyCollege of Agriculture, Navsari Agricultural University, Waghai, Gujarat, IndiaVictorian Institute of Technology, Melbourne, AustraliaHolmesglen Institut
Australian emergency nurses’ experiences of working with personal protective equipment during the COVID-19 pandemic. A qualitative study

Transitioning to a new way of doing things: a post-pandemic future for online learning in Vocational Education and Training (VET) and Higher Education (HE) in a mixed sector institute.
No full textAbstract only. Please contact the author for access.The disruption caused by the Covid_19 pandemic forced educational institutions worldwide to rethink and reshape conventional delivery models of learning and teaching. This transition from face-to-face instruction to remote learning through virtual classrooms and the use of online platforms became the ‘new normal’, aimed at limiting the spread of the deadly virus. Teachers in the tertiary sector faced enormous challenges in the rapid transition to online learning, forging new paths into unknown territory and facing uncertainties about the future. The reality of teachers’ day-to-day work was, in many cases, not what their roles dictated of them in a pre-pandemic world.
This paper is based on ongoing research that builds on an earlier study exploring the innovations and adaptations made to face-to-face delivery in programs from Vocational Education and Training (VET) and Higher Education (HE) in a TAFE institute in Victoria, Australia. Of significance is the unique context of the study, being a mixed-sector institute that offers VET and HE programs. Participants were drawn from two faculties within the Institute and included learners, teachers and lecturers. One aim of the study was to examine the online instructional approaches teachers implemented to replace in-person delivery. We used in-depth contextual interviews, collection of documents and artefacts, and an audit of the online learning platform as data collection methods in this single case study. Findings from the study showed that teaching staff from VET and HE were challenged by the online learning experience, firstly in the changes to pedagogical approaches and secondly, in the uptake of new technology. The provision of synchronous and asynchronous teaching and learning was fraught, with the speed of the changes imposed on teaching staff being problematic. Professional learning and support were provided by the Institute but often did not meet the needs of teachers. As emergency remote teaching continued, teachers were given more flexibility and autonomy to adapt and adjust their pedagogical approaches and use of digital tools. They developed and engaged in virtual classrooms, mastered new skills such as creating short instructional videos and adjusted and adapted assessment tasks.
In this presentation the researchers will consider, firstly, how the pandemic has recalibrated the way teachers work in a post-pandemic world, and secondly, the critical need for education systems to further empower teachers by investing in skills development and capacity-building.Early Childhood EducationHolmesglen InstituteHolmesglen InstituteAARE 2023 ConferenceMelbourn
Essential guide to fitness: for the fitness instructor
No full textItem is not available from this repository. Print copy held in the Holmesglen Institute Library.Essential Guide to Fitness is the only locally authored comprehensive text that directly addresses the Certificate III in Fitness, a large stable market. The text provides ancillary educator support materials and is available in print, eBook or MindTap.This qualification reflects the role of fitness instructors. At this level, fitness instructors plan and deliver group exercise sessions and/or develop gym-based programs for individuals where the level of personalised instruction and ongoing client monitoring is limited. They work in predictable environments under general supervision. When instructing groups or interacting with clients, they use discretion and judgment to solve routine issues within the parameters of clearly defined plans, policies, and procedures.This qualification provides a pathway to work as an aqua exercise instructor, group exercise instructor, gym instructor or multi-skilled fitness instructor in settings such as fitness facilities, gyms, leisure, and community centres.Allied Health Services and ScienceHolmesglen Institut
