TAFE Centres of Excellence

As a leader in skills development and training, TAFE Queensland has been chosen to spearhead three national TAFE Centres of Excellence, joint initiatives between the Australian Government and the Queensland Governments.

TAFE Queensland is leading the TAFE Centre of Excellence Clean Energy Batteries, the TAFE Centre of Excellence Construction Tech and the TAFE Centre of Excellence Health Care and Support.

Through the National Skills Agreement, the Australian Government has partnered with states and territories to establish nationally networked TAFE Centres of Excellence to deliver a skilled workforce for strategically important industries.

TAFE Queensland will play an essential role collaborating with partners across Queensland and Australia to develop innovative training to meet current and emerging skill needs in the battery technology, construction and health care and support industries.

TAFE Centre of Excellence Clean Energy Batteries

The TAFE Centre of Excellence Clean Energy Batteries will develop innovative, hands-on training to establish Queensland as a skills leader in battery technology, supporting a reliable and sustainable energy future for all Queenslanders.
