Accredited Industry Training Organisations

Industry Training Organisations (ITOs) are recognised by the Associate Minister of Education (Tertiary Education) under the Industry Training Act 1992. They are established by particular industries and are responsible for:

  • setting national skill standards for their industry
  • providing information and advice to trainees and their employers
  • arranging for the delivery of on and off-job training (including developing training packages for employers)
  • arranging for the assessment of trainees and
  • arranging the monitoring of quality training.

The Tertiary Education Commission website has the full list of recognised Industry Training Organisations.
