Resources - E-business training - National

On a national level the following information is available:  

Courses throughout Australia - a Nationwide Directory of Short Courses
Courses.com.au lists 12,000 courses throughout Australia. Course providers are entitled to list their basic course details on this website for a small fee. The site is free to users.

Note on searching this site: The e-businessguide website describes e-business as "doing business using the Internet". The courses.com.au website does not use this language. Instead it focuses on the individual activities that make up e-business such as "email" or "web page design". When you search the courses.com.au database after selecting your state, click a category - either Computing & IT or Business & Finance. You can then select your regional area. Training providers are continually changing their courses, so contact them to obtain their course timetable and specific course information.
