Australian Training Awards

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Australian Training Awards are annual awards given by the Australian government for excellence in a number of occupational training and education areas, to both individuals and organisations.

Each Australian state and territory also provides awards in these areas; it is these winners, the finalists, who compete for the national Australian Training Awards.

The announcement of the 2006 Australian Training Awards is planned for Thursday, 16 November 2006, at a function at the Adelaide Convention Centre, Adelaide.
