One hundred seventy Samoans recently graduated from the Australia Pacific Training Coalition (APTC) with Australian-standard qualifications across 12 diverse courses.

The Australia Pacific Training Coalition (APTC) celebrated a major milestone this month, graduating 165 Vanuatu citizens with internationally-recognised qualifications in a graduation ceremony held in Port Vila. This graduating cohort is a testament to APTC’s commitment to empowering the Vanuatu workforce, with a remarkable 94 graduates – over 57% – being women.
