What is NVITAFE?

NVITAFE has been established to support a stronger, more connected vocational education system across Northern Victoria. It provides a single governance and operating framework for GOTAFE and Wodonga TAFE, enabling shared capability and resources, leading to long-term regional benefit.

For students, staff and partners, this means continuity of local delivery, with improved alignment and coordination behind the scenes.
