Trades Training Centre
The $4.7 million Trades Training Centre at Esperance SHS was opened in 2011. Year 11 and 12 students enrolled in Esperance SHS’s Automotive, Metals & Engineering and Building & Construction VET programs use the facility for their schooling and their certificate training. Students in these programs complete a Certificate.
The Centre includes:
- a fully equipped automotive workshop that has state-of-the art equipment including a laser wheel aligner, scan tool and two hoists.
- A fully equipped construction and wet trades workshop that includes industry standard timber machining equipment as well as concreting equipment and two enclosed tool trailers set up for on-site work
- Design space that features computers
Entry into some of these VET programs is competitive. Students should be doing everything they can in lower school to demonstrate their suitability to be selected for one of these programs.
Application packages are available from the VET page under the Curriculum menu in term 3.
