Chisholm Institute is a Technical and Further Education (TAFE) Institute located in the south-east Melbourne Australia. It provides adult education in a number of areas including the arts, hospitality, information technology, trades and business. Chisholm offers over 330 certificate, diploma, advanced diploma and graduate certificate courses.[1]

The Institute takes its name from Caroline Chisholm. Its name was also inspired by the Chisholm Institute of Technology, a tertiary institution that operated in southeast Melbourne from 1982 to 1990 before becoming part of Monash University.

Chisholm Institute has campuses in Dandenong, Berwick, Frankston, Wonthaggi, Cranbourne, and Mornington Peninsula Campus.

Berwick Technical Education Centre (TEC) was established at the Berwick campus with the new building completed in 2009.[2] A new trade careers centre worth $26 million associated with the TEC was announced in the 2011 State Budget in May.[3]
