Technical education 1964-1982
In the late 1960s and 1970s, technical education divided into two streams. Tertiary-level institutes of technology were established in Brisbane in 1965, and Toowoomba and Rockhampton in 1967. These were granted autonomy in 1971.
Furthermore, to help fulfil the demand for technical or certificate-level studies, a perimeter of specialist technical colleges were established around Brisbane in the early 1970s, each specialising in one or more of the sub-tertiary functions of the Central Technical College, which was phased out.
The colleges were situated at Yeronga, Eagle Farm, South Brisbane, Ithaca, Kangaroo Point, Coorparoo and Seven Hills. At the same time many of the country colleges, e.g. Mt Isa, Cairns and Bundaberg, were moved into new accommodation, separate from the high schools.
