Gills College Australia Pty Ltd [01701G], trading as Sterling Business College, ceased operating on Thursday 17 October 2024. Gills College Australia is working to arrange for all students to be transferred to other suitable education providers with minimal disruption to the students' education.
The Tuition Protection Service (TPS) is in contact with Gills College Australia to inform them of their obligations to students and to determine how we can support Gills College Australia and their students during this difficult time.
