Rare opportunity for students considering a pathway to the Auto Industry

The Australian Automotive Aftermarket Expo and Collision Repair Expo will be held at the Melbourne Convention & Exhibition Centre, 1 Clarendon Street Southbank from Thursday 7- Saturday 9 April 2022.

Hosted by the Australian Automotive Aftermarket Association, more than 250 companies will showcase new products and services over 16,500 square metres.  The stunning feature includes the Workshop of the Future Pavilion which includes a display of state-of-the-art equipment and technology as well as regular presentations from industry experts.

Working within the automotive industry is fast-paced and an exciting career choice, with over 17 million cars and motorcycles registered in Australia that all need to be serviced and repaired. The automotive industry is currently on the road to a more environmentally friendly future and technological innovation will be a crucial feature as cars continue to evolve to meet the needs of a low carbon economy.
