OTTE renamed Skills Victoria - New Website

As many of you will be aware the Office of Training and Tertiary Education or OTTE has been renamed Skills Victoria. Along with this change Skills Victoria has refreshed and renamed their website to www.skills.vic.gov.au. The new Skills Victoria web site provides information on education and training options to a wide range of audiences including apprentices, trainees, students, teachers, trainers, businesses and employers.

Information about Victorian ITABs and links to their web sites can be accessed through the Industry & Employers tab on the side menu.

If you are looking for corporate-specific information visit Skills Victoria Corporate: www.skills.vic.gov.au/corporate.

The main feature of the new web sites are the ease of navigation and quicker click-access to information.

The web site is live as at today, and I encourage you to visit and engage with Skills Victoria's on-line platform.

For more information please, see Skills Victoria's announcement.
