Studying the Take a Seat With Us at Holmesglen

This multi-industry training program provides the foundations you need to accelerate your career in one of these industries. Australia is experiencing a huge labour shortage across the furniture, boating, automotive, and specialised textile industries. This has resulted in unprecedented delays, a backlog of orders, and businesses struggling to meet demand. This course aims to bridge that gap by connecting potential students with employers who are eager to take on enthusiastic employees.
