Achieving status as an Apple Approved Training Centre is a testament to North Sydney College’s highly skilled personnel and state-of-the-art film, television, and digital media facilities.

AATC status is only granted following a rigorous endorsement process to ensure technical expertise and available facilities meet and surpass the required standards.
