You can find out at the 2016 WorldSkills Australia National Competition, Melbourne - the largest trades and skills showcase in the country. Held from Thursday, 6 to Saturday, 8 October 2016, the National Competition will provide visitors with a unique inside look into trade and skill-based professions. Close to 500 young apprentices, trainees and students from all corners of Australia will converge on Melbourne Showgrounds to compete for the coveted title of 'National Champion' in over 50 skill categories including Vehicle Painting, Bricklaying, Hairdressing, Programming, Cookery, Welding and many more.
