Who we are
We are a driving change in regional education by empowering the Western Downs community to fulfil their potential through higher education. We are increasing access by providing a highly connected learning community in Chinchilla to overcome the barriers to success.
Why we are here
Regional and rural communities deserve quality opportunities to pursue their dreams without the need to relocate. Our mission is to provide regional people with the space and tools they need to create a vibrant and more prosperous future for themselves and their wider community.
Who we are here for
All people in the Western Downs region who are studying higher education from any university or non-university higher education provider are able to register for free access to the centre. Whether you are a local, visiting or placement student studying an Apprenticeship, Traineeship, Certificate, Diploma or Undergraduate or Post-graduate course we are here for you. Or if you’re a local business or service provider interested in engaging with locally trained university graduates and students, or hosting student placements and work-based learning, we are here for you too.
