New campus reflects Endeavour College’s upward trajectory

Endeavour College in Brisbane is moving to an improved campus for the start of the 2012 academic year, reflecting the continued growth of the college.

Endeavour Learning Group CEO, Carolyn Barker AM, announced the move to staff and students on Monday, 19 December, 2011. The new campus is at 269 Wickham Street, Fortitude Valley.

“We considered a number of potential sites for the new campus, and our final decision was based on offering the best possible educational experience for students,” Ms Barker said.

“The Wickham Street campus offers our students greatly improved facilities and resources.”

“It is closer to public transport and there will be better equipped classrooms, dedicated student zones, more practical areas and improved clinic learning spaces.”

Ms Barker said there were also a larger library and a state-of-the-art laboratory. The building features sustainable building practices such as sensor lighting and recycled building materials, which reflects the College’s ethos and values.

It will bring academic teaching staff and student services into one central location to  facilitate student contact with staff. The new campus is close to a post office, ATM facilities, the Valley swimming pool, cafes and restaurants.

Ms Barker described this as a period of exciting growth for the Endeavour Learning Group, which includes the Endeavour College of Natural Health, FIAFitnation and the College of Natural Beauty. “We aim to provide the industry’s best education as a leading dual sector institution offering both Higher Education and VET qualifications Australia-wide,” Ms Barker said.

Endeavour College has six campuses in Brisbane, the Gold Coast, Melbourne, Perth, Sydney and Adelaide. The Bay of Plenty College of Homeopathy in New Zealand is also part of the Endeavour Learning Group.
