Providing a sound learning experience for students with a broad range of courses and qualifications
TBM Training Pty Ltd
(TBM) was established in the Latrobe Valley in 2001 and has been located in Cranbourne for eight years. TBM continues to offer career relevant qualifications and courses to meet community needs and industry skills shortages. The flexible delivery approach model of TBM allows students to choose classroom, workplace, and distance learning.

In addition to their long established Cranbourne facility, TBM has a new, roomy, well equipped training facility in Morwell to better deliver a sound learning experience to the community of the Latrobe Valley and greater Gippsland.
52 qualifications and courses are on offer to ensure students are presented with a real choice of career options. Low tuition contributions, day, evening and Saturday classes, and qualifications and courses from entry level to Advanced Diplomas in several industry sectors all contribute to the TBM point of difference.
This nationally recognised private training organisation delivers ‘a sound learning experience’ for all students. It is a tradition within TBM that all students are treated as equals and with respect. With this belief, students gain competence not only in the enrolled qualification or course, but also in their chosen career field.
Student ‘access and equity’ is not only a TBM policy, but is practiced by all at TBM. It is important all students are provided the best opportunity to reach their potential in their chosen qualification or course.
It is important to Barry (the founder) to maintain a consistent awareness of student needs, and community trends in training and assessment.
A great team is another key ingredient in the delivery of a sound learning experience. With this in mind, a committed team of managers, trainers and support staff all combine to ensure that students are offered the best possible customer service.
So how is TMB different to other learning institutions? TBM offers growth opportunities not only to students looking to gain employment or advance their career prospects, but just as importantly offers employees the same chances through personal development and promotion from within.
We employee industry skilled and experienced trainers with a heart for working with students to reach their career potential and foster a team spirit within, and by doing so, ensures students of having a sound learning experience. They research community learning needs and work with industry groups and local authorities in order to provide flexible, practical, career focused training in skill shortage industry sectors.
TBM methods of course delivery include classroom, workplace, and distance learning with student support to encourage all students to complete their chosen qualification. TBM has access to government funding for eligible students in approved qualifications and courses. They provide ongoing trainer availability and contact even after completion of classroom sessions. TBM always strives to always deliver a sound learning experience. They deliver vocationally based training which equips graduates to realise their career potential.
The TBM difference comes from a privately operated company managed by the founder, and although considerable growth has occurred as a result of word of mouth referrals, this registered training organisation remains small enough for dedicated, skilled staff to be aware of the needs of students.
