SIT60222 is the nationally recognised Advanced Diploma of Event Management. It prepares you for work as a conference and event organiser. It has been the current version on the national register since 2022, when it replaced SIT60216. Employers posted about 404 conference and event organiser jobs in June 2026, down 8.3% on a year earlier.
The signals behind this qualification are mixed, and both sides are worth weighing. Specifically: employment in its occupations is projected to grow through 2035, national enrolments are rising and the official shortage list does not rate its occupations in shortage. These are official statistics, not a promise about any individual's result.
Employers are advertising fewer of these roles than a year ago. Across Conference And Event Organiser, about 404 jobs were advertised online in June 2026 (down 8.3% on a year earlier). Roughly 5,553 openings were advertised over the last 12 months, while 30 people enrolled in the qualification nationally in 2024. Enrolment counts people in training, not completions, so the two figures describe the pipeline and the market, not a job guarantee.
None of the occupations this qualification leads to is rated as in shortage on the official list. In the 2025 Occupation Shortage List assessment, Conference and Event Organiser is rated not in shortage.
Employment in these occupations is projected to grow. Government projections put them at 30,300 workers in May 2025, 32,000 by May 2030 (up 5.6%) and 34,000 by May 2035 (up 12.2%).
More people are choosing this qualification each year. National enrolments rose from 15 in 2023, the first year it appears in national data, to 30 in 2024 (up 100%).
The register and the national framework set some of this. Providers set the rest.
State funding for SIT60222 is being verified against official program lists.
Eligibility and student contributions vary by program and provider. The official state listing is the source of truth. In a subsidised place the government pays most of the tuition and you pay a co-contribution set by the program and provider.

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.
