Recognition of Trade Training

Navy, Army and Air Force are Registered Training Organisation (RTO) under the Australian Quality Training Framework (AQTF). This allows the Australian Defence Force to issue national awards, which in principle have the same standing as those provided by Universities and other Institutes of TAFE.

Further Education and Training

The Defence Force wants to bring out the very best in you, so throughout your career you'll be given lots of opportunities to undertake further training. This can be in your chosen trade or even in a completely new area. Defence may also help financially with additional civilian schooling during your period of service, which will help you in the future. 

Equipment

Defence prides itself on having ‘state of the art’ equipment and tools for its personnel to work with and on. Whether you are located at a major base or doing a ‘bush’ deployment, you will have what you need to get the job done quickly and efficiently.
