Scale indicators5 records

Recent moves7 records

Expansion highlights7 records

Broad incumbents

• TAFE Queensland: Government-owned TAFE delivering vocational qualifications across Queensland in security, business, trades and more. Direct overlap with Asset College's core QLD market and course portfolio, but at vastly greater scale and breadth as a public provider.
• TAFE NSW: Largest public VET provider in NSW, delivering security, business and trade qualifications under the Smart and Skilled program. Competes with Asset College for NSW-subsidised enrolments but operates as part of a much broader multi-sector portfolio.
• Holmesglen Institute: Major Victorian TAFE-style provider delivering vocational qualifications including security and business programs. Comparable to Asset College in VET delivery model but with a broader course catalogue and a single-state Victorian footprint.

Direct peers

• Australian Vocational Training Academy: Private RTO offering security, business and vocational qualifications nationally. Closely comparable to Asset College in scope, RTO status and target learner segments (career changers, security licence aspirants).
• Skills Certified Australia: Private RTO focused on security and vocational training under Australian Qualifications Framework. Closely comparable niche focus on the security licence pathway that is Asset College's core product.
• MSA Training & Professional Development: Private RTO delivering security, risk management and business qualifications in Australia. Comparable in target market and course mix, particularly around Certificate III/IV in Security and Risk Management.
• Orion Security Training: Security-focused private RTO delivering security licence, aviation/maritime screening and operational training across Australian states. A narrower security-specialist peer with similar employer-network-driven value proposition.
• Australian Training Academy: Private RTO providing security, hospitality and business courses across multiple Australian states. Comparable multi-state vocational delivery model competing for similar government-subsidised students.
