As one of the largest TAFEs in Victoria, The Gordon has been helping people gain real skills for nearly 140 years. The institution prides itself on delivering a great range of study options in vocational hands-on training.
Students can choose from hundreds of short courses and nationally accredited qualifications across apprenticeships, traineeships, certificates, diplomas, and advanced diplomas, which can lead students to a great career or create a pathway to university.
From Geelong, Victoria, around Australia and overseas, thousands choose to study at The Gordon each year via flexible options including on-campus, full and part-time, off-campus, online, and in the workplace.
The Gordon embraces the partnership model, working with secondary schools, universities, employers, and the community in programs that deliver real benefits. The institution is also forging strong international strategic partnerships, particularly in China and Indonesia.
The Gordon has two main campuses in Geelong, the largest regional city in Victoria; as well as two smaller campuses in Werribee. Geelong is the gateway to the Bellarine Peninsula, Surf Coast and Otways regions, which means students can enjoy a fantastic lifestyle while they study or work.
Geelong offers the best of the city, country and coast with an affordable cost of living and great sense of community, plus it is still close to Melbourne City and Ballarat, only one hour away by car, train or bus.
