Welcome to the Tasmania Tomorrow website

Under this initiative three new organisations will be created from our colleges and TAFE Tasmania, each focused on a specific role.

  • The Tasmanian Academy will focus on academic learning, with a curriculum and academic pathway for Year 11 and 12 students seeking university entrance.
  • The Tasmanian Polytechnic will focus on practical learning, with a vocational pathway, supported by academic courses as well, for both Year 11/12 and mature-age students seeking employment outcomes or university articulation.
  • Training Tasmania (interim name) will focus on skills development for employees in enterprises, in line with their enterprise’s skills needs.

These new organisations will commence from January 2009.
