- Trainer onboarding and support
- Shared resource and assessment folders
- VASS/VCAA admin assistance
- Marketing materials
- Audition workshop opportunities
- Access to our private studio support community
“DTO impressed me with their response speed and their thorough resources. The course is so practical because it’s built by teachers who are teaching it and refining it from classroom level.”
Justine Morris
Ballarat Clarendon College
“Dance Training Organisation’s deep connection to the dance industry is evident in every aspect of their program. Their up-to-date knowledge of current trends, safe dance practices, and professional standards is thoughtfully embedded into their resources and support. Our students are developing relevant, industry-informed skills that genuinely prepare them for the future.”

Community Class
No qualified trainer at your studio? No problem.
Your students join our online community class, led by one of DTO’s trainers. They complete theory and assessment with us, while continuing their technique classes at your studio.
You’re still part of their journey — without taking on the VET delivery workload.
