For over forty years, Holmes has had an enviable reputation as a quality education provider, being 100% Australian owned and maintaining since 1988 an unchanged senior management team. From 1988 Holmes has moved steadily towards active involvement with the higher education sector, particularly in the provision of undergraduate level degrees.
The establishment of the Holmes Institute of Higher Education is in fulfilment of the company´s higher education mission. To meet this challenge Holmes initiated relationships in 2000 with a number of public Australian universities. This initiative complemented and built on the existing articulation pathways of the Holmes diploma courses with degree courses at other providers of higher education in Australia.
