training location

An Agricultural College With A Difference

Our Hamilton complex is located at 915 Mount Napier Road, Hamilton. 

The Hamilton site is surrounded by an operational research farm, providing students with a step out of the classroom and into a paddock atmophere.

The Hamilton facility has a large lecture theatre, four tutorial rooms, a computer room, a kitchen, a large pavilion (shed and workshop facilities), and a laboratory which are all used extensively during the delivery of our training.

Our classes have access to on site sheep yards, cattle yards, and a shearing shed for use during practical animal handling activities undertaken as part of the training.

RIST also conducts training on-farm in different locations throughout Australia.

Students also attend our Terang facility located at 7161 Princes Hwy, Terang. The Terang facility is surrounded by a working Dairy Farm. 

*Purchase of buildings at the Hamilton site was funded by the Federal Department of Education.
