Civil Safety Continues Western Australian Expansion with Acquisition of WA Skills Training

We're excited to announce that Civil Safety has continued it's expansion into Western Australia through the acquisition of WA Skills Training, a well-established training provider with locations in Perth and Bunbury.

The expansion is a continuation of growth following the 2024 acquisition of Kalgoorlie-based registered training organisation, All Mine Construction Training (AMCT).

WA Skills Training has built a strong reputation over many years for delivering hands-on training across the mining, construction, and safety sectors. By joining forces, we're combining local expertise with our national resources, providing WA students and businesses with even greater value, support, and flexible training options.

On the acquisition, Civil Safety CEO Robert Kerridge said:

We're excited to support the workforce in Perth, Bunbury and surrounding areas with innovative, flexible training that meets real-world skills shortages.
