The Centre is a key element of the Rudd Government’s $61 million defence industry skilling package.


This is an excellent appointment. Tony Quick has an extensive background in the defence industry, most recently as Director and General Manager of GKN Aerospace Engineering Services, an Australian company heavily involved the Joint Strike Fighter project.
