The project – made possible thanks to $25 million from the Andrews Labor Government’s TAFE Rescue Fund – will feature a new four storey facility for health, community care and early childhood education.
The campus will get a Higher Education and Student Hub and a new Centre for Advanced Manufacturing.
The redevelopment will allow Chisholm to meet higher education demand in the region and support the re-skilling and up-skilling of workers – changing people’s lives for the better.
For two years, the Labor Government has been delivering the things that matter most to people – including making sure every Victorian has access to real training so they can get a real job.
Chisholm is a key player in giving industries in South East Melbourne a highly skilled workforce. That’s why the Labor Government is supporting Chisholm with extra funding including:
- $3.5 million in Community Service Funding for vital community support
- $4.3 million from the TAFE Back to Work Fund
- $1.6 million from the TAFE Boost Fund to strengthen apprenticeships and traineeships
- $2.4 million to support workers in the automotive manufacturing sector in South East Melbourne to transition to new jobs.
The redevelopment is expected to be completed in 2018.
