YOUR CAREER IN WOOL STARTS HERE - WOOL CLASSING PART 1
The NEW AHC41325 Certificate IV in Wool Classing and AHC33025 Certificate III in Wool Clip Preparation (Owner Classer - SA ONLY) are now open for intake — and with the updated course, they're shorter in hours and easier to fit around your work.

There's a reason why we are the leading provider of nationally accredited training for the wool industry.

Whether you're a wool handler, grower or broker, you'll learn to class your best clip with hands-on training — in the shed and on the property.

Our trainers are industry leaders, turning learners into award-winning professionals at a national level.

Flexible training delivered statewide across SA & VIC
