Job Training Institute

What Job Training Institute does

Job Training Institute (JTI) is a privately held Australian Registered Training Organisation (RTO #122208) founded in 2008 and headquartered in Dandenong, Victoria, with additional campuses in Melbourne CBD and Sunshine. It delivers nationally recognised vocational qualifications under the Australian Qualifications Framework, primarily in aged care, disability support, early childhood education and care, community services, mental health, nursing, business, and English language (ELICOS) training. The institute serves two primary cohorts: domestic students (eligible for Victorian Government Skills First subsidies and VET Student Loans) and international students enrolled under CRICOS #03373B through a network of education agents. Courses are priced at A$2,500–A$6,000 for fee-for-service students, with subsidised seats available to eligible Victorian residents at zero tuition under the Skills First Program.

JTI's technology stack is built on a Moodle-based Learning Management System (LMS) hosted at moodle.lms.jti.edu.au, supporting blended delivery via Zoom virtual classes combined with face-to-face simulation sessions on campus, alongside self-paced study modes. A proprietary Language, Literacy and Numeracy (LLN) assessment tool is used for pre-training review, and the institute maintains an ASQA-aligned quality management framework including Learner Engagement and Employer Satisfaction surveys. The business is differentiated structurally by its 'Demonstrated Consistently Compliant' ASQA rating (the highest RTO quality rating available) and a 15+ year operating history concentrated in Melbourne's multicultural south-eastern corridor.

Revenue is generated through four streams: fee-for-service tuition, Skills First Victorian Government subsidies, VET Student Loans (for the Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care), and ancillary student support services (e.g., certificate re-issue fees, accommodation assistance). Distribution combines direct enrollment via the institute's website and enrollment team, a global network of named international education agents (VISAPROSTUDY, AECC Global, AUSGATE, ATLAS Education Consultancy) recruiting overseas students, and on-campus delivery at three Melbourne locations with mandatory work placement hours delivered through an integration with SKILTRAK. The CEO and Principal Executive Officer is Lovleen Chawla; the company has no disclosed parent, subsidiaries, or external funding rounds.

Job Training Institute (JTI) is an Australian Registered Training Organisation (RTO) offering a portfolio of nationally recognised vocational education courses primarily in healthcare, community services, early childhood education, disability support, mental health, business, and English language training.
