THE GIPPSLAND EDUCATION PRECINCT (GEP)
The GEP was designed to provide a full education and training service from a single site (located at Monash University Gippsland campus). It offers Gippsland students access to an unsurpassed range of career pathways, training programs and tertiary education options.
From the GEP, we :
- deliver accredited training in the Automotive and Engineering trades to apprentices and VET students;

We are also pleased to be involved in the management of the GEP, including its financial and ICT resources.
The GEP was officially opened for business in 2006 by the Hon. Lynne Kosky (Victorian Minister for Education) and the Hon. Gary Hardgrave (Commonwealth Minister for Vocational Education and Training). Today it provides innovative cross-sectoral education and training to many thousands of Gippsland students.
