Graduation
Overview
Earning a qualification reflects your dedication, perseverance, and ambition. Whether you've completed a Certificate, Diploma or Degree, this achievement deserves to be recognised and celebrated.
Our graduation ceremonies are a celebration that bring students, family, friends, teachers, and classmates together to honour this important moment. It's a chance to reflect on your journey, celebrate your success, and look ahead to the exciting opportunities that await.

Graduation ceremonies
Our graduation ceremonies are held once a year, between March-June (depending on our events calendar). We hold one ceremony for Diploma and Degree students, and a second for Certificate III and IV students.
In order to be eligible to attend a graduation ceremony, you must meet the above eligibility criteria and also have received your Certificate of Completion by 28 February.
Any students who miss this deadline will be eligible to attend our graduation ceremony the following year.
Graduation ceremonies only occur once a year, so don’t miss your opportunity to experience the thrill of graduation.
