North Metropolitan TAFE

North Metropolitan TAFE is a state government-funded educational facility delivering Technical and Further Education (TAFE). It services the northern suburbs of Perth across ten campuses. It was formed on 11 April 2016, when the State Government announced, after the Independent Review of the Vocational Education and Training Sector in Western Australia, that the 11 State Training Providers would be streamlined and form five new TAFE colleges in Western Australia. This resulted in the merging of Central Institute and West Coast Institute to form North Metropolitan TAFE.

At the beginning of 2017, two campuses (Balga and Midland) that were formerly part of Polytechnic West also joined North Metropolitan TAFE.

North Metropolitan TAFE offers courses that are nationally recognized VET courses under the Australian Quality Training Framework (AQTF). Students can study qualifications at various levels, including Certificate I, Certificate II, Certificate III, Certificate IV, Diploma, Advanced Diploma, Associate Degree, and Bachelor Degree.

Qualifications can be studied full-time, part-time, or online (self-paced study). Components of qualifications can also be studied as Short Courses over a few weeks. Some courses allow students to enroll as apprentices or trainees, resulting in part of the training for the course being completed “on the job”.

North Metropolitan TAFE courses can, in some instances, prepare students for university studies. North Metropolitan TAFE has arrangements in place with local Western Australian universities and national higher education providers so that credits/advanced standing can be applied to units completed at TAFE.

The industry areas that North Metropolitan TAFE has courses covering include Automotive, Building and construction, Business and Finance, Creative Industries, Education, Engineering, Health, Hospitality, tourism and travel, Information technology, Mining, and Science and environment.

A minimum of 5.5 is required in IELTS to get admitted to the college.
