Shafston College - National Trades Institute

Welcome to the National Trades Institute (NTI). NTI was established in 2009 due to the lack of access, flexibility and quality in trade areas of greatest demand to the Australian workforce.

At NTI we have sought out industry professionals in vocational education and training, trades, business and administration for one reason – to ensure the best possible training outcomes for students and no-fuss experience for employers.

Offering specialist student development programs, NTI provides an excellent platform for learning!

Our people will do their utmost to understand your needs and align training to those needs. NTI continually searches out and incorporates the latest training technology to ensure our training achieves the highest and most demanding quality standards.

Our facilities are second to none and NTI has the ability to service all areas including the regional and rural communities of Queensland much better than has ever been available.
