Back in April the Australian Skills Quality Authority cancelled the registration of Stirling Skills Training, the decision is stayed while considered by the Administrative Appeals Tribunal

But Skills minister Michaelia Cash has confidence in Stirling. Very learned VET analyst Claire Field points to tweets by Minister Cash on Sunday; “Stirling Skills Training has been an integral part of the vocational education scene in Perth for more than 30 years. They deliver courses and traineeships to over 3,000 Western Australians annually! Last week I had a fantastic meeting with their CEO Bala Suppiah to discuss ways we can better support young people to get off welfare and into work,” the minister tweeted.

While the AAT considers Stirling’s application against ASQA’s decision the tribunal says Stirling must “neither enrol nor train additional students.”
