Welcome to SkillForge Institute

Since 2008 we have helped school leavers, job seekers and working adults move into skilled trades. Every course is built with employers, so what you practise in our workshops is what you will do on the job.

Our instructors are working professionals. Our classes are small. And our certificates are recognised by the industries that hire from us.
