about smt

Tasmania is surrounded by some of the world’s cleanest waters, providing an abundance of opportunities in seafood, shellfish, aquaculture and ocean tourism. And as Australia’s southernmost port, Hobart acts as a gateway to Antarctica for maritime and research services.

It is because of our close working relationship with this large variety of seafood and maritime industries that SMT has become Australia’s preferred industry training provider.

We pride ourselves on offering organisations and individual students, exceptional guidance throughout their complete training experience. This includes all of the documentation and follow-up necessary to ensure that qualifications remain current and in-keeping with changing legal requirements.

I found the training really professional and helpful to build my career at Huon Aquaculture.
