About TAFE NSW

Technical and Further Education (TAFE) NSW plays a vital role in training the workforce of the future. As they continue to innovate, and respond to changing community and industry skills needs, TAFE NSW are writing the next chapter of the proud 130-year history of an organisation with roots embedded in Australia’s heritage.

Sydney Technical College opened in Newcastle in 1835. In 1883, the NSW State Government assumed responsibility for Sydney Technical College. This date is often quoted as the year that TAFE NSW, although not yet known by this name, was born.

During the 1970s, the establishment of the Technical and Further Education Commission (TAFEC) and the provision of Commonwealth funding had a historic effect. Technical education would now be known by a new name – TAFE – and be recognised as a distinct educational body with its own administrative structure. A policy of regionalisation was brought into play with community colleges further expanding across NSW to meet training needs. In 2017, TAFE NSW returned to a more centralised model, bringing together 130 campuses across the state, allowing them to get better results for students and employers, and to continue TAFE NSW’s proud tradition delivering the highest quality education and training.

Today, TAFE NSW is the leading provider of education and training in Australia, with industry qualified and experienced staff that bring up-to-date real-world skills directly to the classroom. They have over 130 years of history, and their courses and facilities are internationally-renowned.

TAFE NSW’s courses and degrees can help put students on the path to where they want to be. With over 25,000 employer connections, graduates can be assured that their qualifications are well regarded.

TAFE NSW has over 130 locations in New South Wales and a wide variety of classroom and online delivery study options to suit students’ lifestyle, aspirations and individual circumstances.

Studying at TAFE NSW offers students more than just access to outstanding teachers, state-of-the-art facilities and incredible industry connections – it also offers students a chance to experience the famous Australian lifestyle. Relax after class in world class museums or art galleries, soak up the sun on one of hundreds of beaches, or enjoy the café lifestyle that has made New South Wales one of the world’s favourite travel destinations. However students like to relax, New South Wales has them covered – and it’s all on their doorstep when they study with TAFE NSW.
