Emerald Campus at the AACC

SkillsOne finds our about the educational facilities available at the Emerald Campus of the Australian Agricultural College Corporation. We hear from the students and teachers, who come from different backgrounds and the skills they learn. They learn the theory and practice of beef battle, horses, cotton and horticulture on the Emerald Campus.

The Australian Agricultural College Corporation (AACC) was formed in 2005 when the Australian College of Tropical Agriculture (incorporating Burdekin Agricultural College and Mareeba Environmental College), Dalby Agricultural College, Emerald Agricultural College and Longreach Pastoral College joined forces.

AACC combines more than 130 years' experience in agricultural education and training in a range of specialisations, across five campuses located in a range of different geographic and climatic regions.

The AACC has training grounds totaling 59 800 hectares throughout Queensland.
