The Adult Education and Vocational Training Institute (AEVTI) provides literacy, numeracy and communications courses in all centres.

AEVTI contracts TAFE NSW and other providers to deliver courses in a range of vocational areas such as Hospitality, Business Skills, Building, Cleaning, Transport, Aboriginal Studies, Horticulture and various WorkCover licenses. AEVTI also co-ordinates traineeships and apprenticeships and offers support for distance education. Each centre has a library giving inmates access to a range of fiction, non-fiction and reference books.
