Practice Firms

TAFE NSW Practice Firms are part of a national and worldwide program to link multiple small businesses run by students with the aim of providing opportunities for students to develop better business skills. Students trade their simulated goods and services with students in practice firms across New South Wales, Australia and in many countries around the world.

The Australian Network of Practice Firms (ANPF) provides a national/international focus. Their website provides information, support services and includes a list of participating firms (members) from across Australia.

A list of some TAFE NSW Practice Firms are included below - further details are available on the ANPF Our members web page.
