Reason for Sale

The owner is stepping away after 30+ years in the industry to focus on a major building and development project in Victoria. The RTO has continued operating with limited owner involvement, supported by an experienced team member managing compliance and systems, creating an opportunity for a new owner to step in and actively grow the business.

History

Established in 1994 and registered as an RTO in 2002, this business has over 30 years in outdoor recreation. It pioneered climbing and surf training on the Gold Coast and has delivered nationally recognised qualifications for decades. The business has evolved into a specialist outdoor training provider with strong industry credibility, long-standing relationships and hard-to-obtain permits across key coastal locations.

About the Business

This is a niche, well-established outdoor RTO with strong foundations but underutilised capacity. It has funding pathways, industry credibility and premium training locations already secured. The opportunity is straightforward: increase enrolments, leverage funding contracts and build partnerships. For the right operator, it offers a clear pathway to scale.

This RTO, supported by over 20 years of compliance history and more than 30 years of industry presence, operates with a focused delivery model, providing:

• Certificate II in Outdoor Recreation
• Certificate III in Outdoor Leadership
• Certificate IV in Outdoor Leadership, along with targeted skill sets in surfing, kayaking, stand up paddleboarding and bushwalking.

Training is delivered in real-world environments including Burleigh Heads Beach, Currumbin Creek and Tallebudgera Creek, providing a practical, job-ready training experience.

The business holds valuable government relationships and funding pathways. It operates under a Skills Assure Supplier Agreement and has secured funded delivery programs including Career Start and Career Boost. A Local Skills Solutions contract valued at approximately $240,000 supports delivery of Certificate III qualifications and multiple skill sets.

A key strength is the established infrastructure already in place. The RTO includes a full suite of compliant training and assessment resources developed over many years.

The asset base includes surf, kayak, SUP and climbing equipment with an estimated value of approximately $58,800, along with permits to operate in high-value coastal locations across the southern Gold Coast.

Industry demand remains strong, with a recognised shortage of qualified outdoor instructors. The RTO is well positioned through its practical training model and established industry relationships, which support both student placements and employment outcomes.
