The application dates vary according to the course and intake; however, most courses at Australian institutions have multiple intakes per year (January, April, July, and October). It would be better to apply early, at least 2-3 months, before the commencement date to leave time for processing the student visa and making all other preparation. For the exact deadlines, it is more prudent to ask AITT or on their website for updated information.

AITT offers vocational training that may help students acquire work skills in Australia, in hospitality and business and also in other IT fields.

Yes, an ordinary Indian student is eligible to join the Australian Institute of Technical Training (AITT), provided they satisfy the general admission conditions. These would be conditions such as holding a Diploma of secondary education or equivalent, proficiency in the English language-for example through an IELTS- and financial ability to pay their tuition fees as well as daily living costs in Australia. Programs offered by AITT fall under vocational and technical courses with relatively easier conditions for entry.

The Australian Institute of Technical Training does not come under the list of other major and known universities as published in the global ranking. AITT is a provider of vocational education, focusing more on training rather than research or higher education, and therefore it is less likely to feature in any of the lists of major universities globally. Rankings of vocational institutes are not normally widely published.

Finding a part-time job while studying at AITT is manageable, more so in cities that enjoy strong job markets. Most international students in Australia have the right to work 40 hours per fortnight during term time. It's common for most of them to find work either in retail, hospitality or as tutors, though a great deal of competition goes with it, and this is why one should begin to apply early and with a flexible mindset.
