FCTA - Building Careers is a highly specialised RTO with a low trainer to student ratio. It offers bespoke training in bricklaying, stonemasonry, tiling and heritage trades and is the only provider of nationally recognised training in heritage trade skills in Australia.

The RTO’s close relationship with industry, and its domestic partnerships with the National Trust of South Australia and Renewal SA, ensures learners have access to real heritage sites for training and work.

The RTO’s heritage trade trainer uses the latest approaches to instruct learners in complicated restoration techniques, and apprentices are encouraged to access a Summer Placement Scholarship with the Cathedrals’ Workshop Fellowship in England.

FCTA - Building Careers’ Stonemasonry Scholarship Program aims to attract trainers and encourage women into the industry.

Recognising the need to retain traditional trade skills, FCTA - Building Careers is uniquely placed to bring the past into the future.
