A former Swiss Army mechanic is one of the three lecturers who joined the Charles Darwin University teaching team in Alice Springs for the start of semester two. Alex Eberli, who has joined the School of Trades, completed a motor mechanic’s apprenticeship as a civilian with the Swiss Army in the 1980s. He has worked for a motor vehicle dealership in Armidale and also taught at the New England Institute of TAFE. The two other lecturers, Jodie Carr and Lauren Wapling, have joined the School of Health, Community and Children’s Services. Wapling will initially be involved in the VET in Schools program. Carr will deliver certificates II, III and IV.
