Chisholm

Chisholm has a proud history of delivering technical training in the south east of Melbourne. At the start of the 20th century technical colleges were established in both Frankston and Dandenong and through the 50’s and 60’s other technical colleges were set up in the region. In 1974 the State Government introduced the term ‘technical and further education’ to Victoria and the acronym TAFE was born.

Our network of locations are in the south-east region of Melbourne, a culturally diverse region that is home to over 600,000 people. It is one of the fastest growing areas in Australia, and is of significant social and economic importance to Melbourne and Victoria. Chisholm is strategically positioned to serve this population growth corridor. Students are involved directly in the needs and issues of the community around them.
