The Production & Facilities team works collaboratively to ensure that the school’s infrastructure is fit for purpose to support the delivery of the highly practical, future-focused, and industry-aligned student learning experience the school is known for. Externally, the team works with industry and tertiary partners to seek expertise and benchmark on the industry alignment of its facilities and production methods and to ensure safe and equitable access to AFTRS facilities for students.
