About Outback Learning

Our Story: Rooted in the Heart of Australia

Outback Learning was founded in 2018 by Dr. Anya Sharma and Mr. David Kamba, two passionate educators and environmentalists with deep ties to the Northern Territory. Inspired by the resilience and ingenuity of the communities living in the Australian outback, they envisioned a learning platform that would empower individuals with the skills to thrive in this unique environment.

Our journey began in a small office in Alice Springs, where we developed our first courses on sustainable desert farming and outback tourism management. We recognized the growing need for specialized training that addressed the specific challenges and opportunities presented by the Australian landscape. From there, we began building relationships with local experts and community leaders to ensure that our courses were relevant, practical, and culturally sensitive.

Over the years, Outback Learning has grown into a leading provider of online vocational training in Australia. We have expanded our course offerings to include environmental conservation, renewable energy technologies, and indigenous cultural awareness. Our commitment to quality education and personalized support has earned us a reputation as a trusted partner for individuals, businesses, and community organizations alike.

Based in Alice Springs, we are deeply connected to the local community and committed to fostering a sustainable future for the Australian outback. We partner with local organizations and businesses to provide practical training opportunities and support local initiatives that promote environmental conservation and community development.
