Find your dream career

Not sure what you want to do in the future? Answer eight short questions about what you like to do and where you like to work, and we’ll show you which careers you’re most suited to.

Free TAFE

Free TAFE is available for a number of courses that are 'high priority' due to skills shortages in some industries. Find out more about the Victorian Government's Free TAFE scheme.

Apprenticeships & traineeships

Build the skills employers want and get paid while you're studying. We offer Pre-apprenticeships, Apprenticeships, and Traineeships across a range of industries, allowing you to combine formal training from GOTAFE with on-the-job training from an employer.

We work with local industries and employers to make sure we're teaching you the skills you'll need in the workforce, so you'll graduate ready to tackle whatever your career has in store.
