The long-term signals behind the Certificate III in Tourism are positive, though current job advertising is below a year earlier. Tourist information officers are in national shortage and employment is projected to grow through 2035. Job ads in June 2026 were down 22.1% on a year earlier. These are official statistics, not a promise about your result.
Employers are posting fewer tourist information officer jobs than a year ago. About 249 tourist information officer jobs were advertised online in June 2026, down 22.1% on a year earlier. Over the last 12 months there were about 3,700 job ads, while 15 people were training in the qualification nationally (2025). Ads show the market. Enrolments show the pipeline. Neither is a job promise.

Browse coursesGet Course maps SIT30125 to its occupations using the register’s own outcome wording, shown with ANZSCO codes (here, 4516) so the mapping can be checked. Job advertisement counts come from the Jobs and Skills Australia Internet Vacancy Index and count online ads, not vacancies filled. Enrolment counts come from NCVER Total VET Activity and count people in training, not completions. Outcome benchmarks marked “typical” are medians computed by Get Course across all qualifications at the same level in the same NCVER collection; they are derived figures, not official NCVER benchmarks. Funding rows appear only after verification against the official state program list.
