Did you know that the WorldSkills Australia National comp is being held in Brisbane next year?! Check out our super-star apprentice, Ali, in the second photo. We are so very proud of Ali, who took out first place in the regionals recently at Aussie Painters Network and has her eyes firmly on the first prize after taking out fourth in the country last time.

The WorldSkills Australia National Championships & Skills Show, staged with the Brisbane Careers & Employment Expo is the biggest and most exciting careers event in Queensland for 2025.
