Port Augusta Technical College is planned to open in 2025. Co-located with Port Augusta Secondary School, the Technical College will provide modern facilities for students to undertake specialist industry-based vocational education and training (VET), all while completing their SACE.
The exact operating model for the technical college is being determined through consultation with schools, industry and the broader community in the region. It is expected that the technical college will provide training opportunities for students across the wider region with a part-time teaching model and short stay accommodation facilities on site.
Students will train for careers in key industries in the region including:
- Civil, Resources and Infrastructure
- Health and Social Support
- Hospitality and Tourism
- Multi-trades
