History

[edit]

The Open Learning Institute of TAFE merged with Brisbane North Institute of TAFE in 2006. This merger was the result of a major overhaul of Queensland TAFE operations as detailed in the Queensland Skills Plan.[2] This merger prompted the establishment of TAFE Open Learning as a new business unit. TAFE Open Learning now contributes increasing awareness for consumers seeking flexible off campus learning.
