2025 MTA WA Student Graduation
The MTA WA was proud to host our annual Student Graduation, a fantastic evening celebrating the achievements of our apprentices and students completing key milestones in their automotive careers.
Held at our Balcatta workshop, the event brought together over 120 guests, including graduates, family members, trainers, industry representatives and supporters, to recognise the hard work and dedication of the graduating students.
The workshop was transformed into a vibrant event space for the night, with a standout V8 car display adding to the atmosphere and making it a memorable occasion for everyone involved.
Recognising Outstanding Achievements
A highlight of the evening was recognising outstanding student achievements, with award recipients nominated and voted by their respected MTA WA trainers for their excellence and commitment throughout their training.
- Joshua Drayton, who successfully completed the Certificate II in Automotive Vocational Preparation (AUR20720)
- Bailey Halden, who completed the Certificate III in Automotive Mechanical Technology (AUR30320)
These trainers’ choice awards recognise each student’s dedication, professionalism and development of practical, industry-ready skills, marking an important milestone in their automotive careers.
Proudly Supported by Industry
The event was proudly sponsored by CareSuper and SP Tools, whose ongoing support helps MTA WA continue to recognise and celebrate emerging talent in the automotive industry.
Thanks to the generous support of SP Tools, the students recognised for excellence on the night each received a 12V 3/8″ Drive Impact Wrench Kit, providing a practical and valuable tool to support them as they continue their careers in the trade.
