Our Emerald campus is located on the Capricorn Highway, 275 km west of Rockhampton, and is popular with students studying trade-based apprenticeships, in addition to certificate, diploma, degree and research qualifications in business, education, health and agriculture.

The campus gives students a place to seek support, form study groups, access resources and technology, and provides spaces for quiet study if you are studying online locally.

The campus supports strong partnerships with regional employers, especially in trades, agriculture, and health, ensuring that training is aligned with local workforce needs.
