from Digital Construction Podcast
In this conversation, Bryan Tay, Director at Pivodel, and Dean Sherwell, Manager Commercial Sales and Partnerships at TAFE Queensland, discuss how they spent the last twelve months building Australia's first nationally accredited Advanced Diploma of Digital Engineering. The episode looks at why a recognised pathway has been missing, and what changes when one finally exists.The discussion covers the hidden cost of fragmented learning across projects, the pillars of a competent digital engineer, and why vendor badges fall short of what organisations actually need. Bryan and Dean explain why vocational education sits closer to industry than most engineering graduates assume, and how AI shifts the importance of digital engineering fundamentals rather than reducing them.
