We’re proud to share that our Save Private RTOs petition has now passed 840 signatures — a powerful sign that our sector is speaking up, standing strong, and refusing to be left behind. Thank you to everyone who has already added their voice! 💙


But we’re not stopping here.


🎯 Our next goal is to reach 1,000 signatures — and we need your help to get there.


If you haven’t already, please share the petition with:

  • Your colleagues and staff
  • Your family and friends
  • Your professional networks
  • Local community organisations and groups


📩 Why it matters right now:

We are currently lobbying for urgent meetings with local, state and federal ministers — including the NSW Minister for Skills and the new Federal Minister for Skills and Training, Andrew Giles.

These conversations could directly influence the future of funding, support and sustainability for private RTOs and the thousands of small businesses that support our industry.

The more signatures we bring to the table, the louder our collective voice becomes. We need to show our leaders this issue affects real people, real communities, and real futures.

Let’s reach 1,000 and beyond — and prove that private RTOs are too valuable to ignore.

Thank you for being a part of this movement 💪

Together, we are the voice of change.
