South West TAFE Skills Store

TURN YOUR SKILLS INTO QUALIFICATIONS Do you want recognition for what you already know and do? Years of work experience – but no ‘piece of paper’ to prove it? Are you looking to re-train or re-enter the workforce? Do you need information on courses to improve your career prospects?

What is a Skills Store?

A Skills Store is now available to the people of South West Victoria. The Skills Store is a free consultancy service to individuals and businesses offering expert advice in evaluating your skills, knowledge and experience, and then weigh them against formal qualifications.
