Institutes

Tasmanian Polytechnic

The Tasmanian Polytechnic was created from the merger of tasmanian Colleges and TAFE Tasmania, following the Tasmanian State Government's reform of post-year 10 education in 2009. This significant restructure is taking place over a 3 year period with the expectation that all colleges will have made the transition by 2011.

One of three new organisations created through the Tasmania Tomorrow reforms, the Tasmanian Polytechnic is focused on providing practical and hands on learning for students of all ages and is working with the Tasmanian Academy and the Tasmanian Skills Institute to deliver more positive outcomes for our students, the local economy and Tasmania.

The Drysdale Instiute, Tasmania's foremost provider of training in Hospitality and Tourism has been incorprated into the Tasmanian Polytechnic and Skills Instiute.

TAFE Tasmania is no longer in operation.
