Kangan Institute

About The College

1 Batmans Hill Dr, Docklands VIC 3008, Australia

Kangan Institute was established as the Broadmeadows College of TAFE on 28 February 1986, when it was formally opened by Prime Minister Bob Hawke. It was originally built to cater for 3000 students at a cost of $13.5 million.[1][2] It subsequently acquired a series of other campuses in its first decade, including at Avondale Heights, Essendon and Moreland.[3]

In August 1995, the institution was renamed the Kangan Institute of TAFE in honour of Myer Kangan, the founder of the TAFE system in Australia.[4] On 1 July 1997, it merged with the John Batman College of TAFE to form the Kangan Batman Institute.[5] The merger resulted in the closure of the former John Batman TAFE's campus in Gaffney Street, Coburg, but the amalgamated body expanded again in 1998 when it absorbed the Richmond Automotive Campus of Barton TAFE after a major state government review
