ABOUT:

From humble beginnings in an unrenovated warehouse in the Docklands, NICA ran a pilot national training project in 1999. All eight participants graduated with a Diploma of Circus Arts from Swinburne University in 2001 and found employment with Australian companies the following year.

NICA has now grown significantly, receiving accreditation for the Certificate IV in Circus Arts to continue training artists to meet the demands of a growing local and international circus industry.

NICA is a national not-for-profit arts training organisation registered as a cultural organisation and primarily funded by the Australian Government through the Department of Communications and the Arts. Auspiced by Swinburne University of Technology in Melbourne, NICA is the only training institute of its kind in Australia.

As well as providing professional training through a three-year Bachelor of Circus Arts course, NICA also offers a wide range of fun and safe recreational courses for children, teenagers and adults while supporting the circus industry with professional development and master classes.
