About Inventorium Education

Inventorium Education provides education and case management to students not suited to attending mainstream school provisions. We work in partnership with schools and started with our first 10 students in our Open Access College partnership in 2019, and have over 300 students in 2025. There are three arms to the provision: Inventorium Pty Ltd (embedded school partnerships), Inventorium RTO Pty Ltd (VET provision), and Inventorium Academy (case management and tailored learning provision). We employ over 20 people across our partner schools, at our own campus and remotely, and are always open to receiving applications as we normally need additional staff at the start of the year and at the mid-year point.
