Education and Community Services

As a leading provider of community services, aged care, child care, mental health and education training in Western Australia, we have close relationships with key industry partners including hospitals and a wide range of aged care, disability services, youth work, child care and community service providers. Studying one of our courses is a rewarding way to make a career that is all about helping those in need and making positive changes to communities.

The ageing population, ageing workforce and roll out of the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) have placed an unprecedented demand on service delivery and the requirements for a skilled workforce. North Metropolitan TAFE works closely with industry to produce skilled graduates ready to join the workforce.
