Builders Academy Australia
Builders Academy Australia (BAA) is a Registered Training Organisation (RTO) that works with employers, industry and students to achieve exceptional training results. BAA was originally founded by the Simonds Group which includes Simonds Homes, one of Australia’s largest builders of detached housing in Australia. This allowed BAA great insight into employee and Industry focused educational delivery with an emphasis on the importance of meeting Industry needs. Building homes since 1949, Simonds Homes celebrates a heritage that is celebrated and trusted by Australian families and Industry. In December 2021, the ownership of BAA changed yet a strong strategic relationship with Simonds Homes remains. Simonds Homes is one of many strategic partners that BAA work closely with.
