Melbourne Polytechnic, formerly NMIT, is an institute of higher education and vocational education (TAFE) located in Melbourne, Australia that has been operating since around 1910.[4]
In October 2014, the institute was renamed to Melbourne Polytechnic, aided by a $19 million grant from the Victorian Government.[5][6]
A wide selection of study options in vocational education are offered from short courses, pre-apprenticeships, apprenticeships, and traineeships through to certificates, diplomas, advanced diplomas, and onto higher education, tertiary degrees under the Australian Qualifications Framework.
