Transport & Logistics is not just about driving a truck. There are literally hundreds of different careers within the Logistics industry. Logistics is one of the biggest and fastest growing industries in the world.

The VTA Logistics Cadetship is a two year program which has people aged 18-25 employed full time with Logistics companies while they study for a Certificate IV in Logistics (Year 1) and a Diploma of Logistics (Year 2).

The VTA Logistics Cadetship is run in conjunction with Victoria University for metropolitan cadets and Goulburn Ovens TAFE for regional cadets.
