Accredited Vocational Education and Training (VET) and Associate Degree programs
The Business TAFE School has an impressive array of programs which supports employment and upskilling within industry. These programs range from Certificate III to Advanced Diploma and Associate Degree levels and can be delivered in their entirety or offered as skill-sets to support industry needs.
Short courses
In response to the needs of both industry and individuals for specific job and career upskilling, the Business TAFE School has developed a range of short courses.
Traineeships programs
Work-based traineeships provide opportunities for both new and existing workers to gain knowledge and skills and a qualification whilst they are working. A customised training plan is developed in conjunction with the employer to ensure work relevance and achievement of personal goals and business outcomes.
There may also be federal incentives and state based funding available to support traineeships. An Australian Apprenticeship Centre must be contacted to determine eligibility.
The IT traineeship is great for people already working in the information technology industry because it allows you to complete your studies and increase your knowledge in the field while still working full-time.
