People in Perth’s northern suburbs will soon have a modern $21million automotive training centre on their doorstep. Training Minister Peter Collier and Senator Louise Pratt, representing the Deputy Prime Minister and Federal Education, Employment and Workplace Relations Minister Julia Gillard, cut the ribbon on the 4.9 hectare site today at Joondalup. Construction of the Motor Industry Training Association’s (MITA) new centre is being funded in part with an $8million training infrastructure grant from the Federal Government. MITA is providing the remainder of the funds.
