Holmesglen Institute is a Victorian government TAFE (Technical and Further Education) institution established in 1982, operating under CRICOS Provider Code 00012G. It has grown from serving 7,000 students across 90 programs to now offering more than 600 programs to over 50,000 students, making it one of Melbourne's largest vocational and higher education providers.

Holmesglen delivers qualifications ranging from certificates and diplomas through to bachelor degrees across nine broad study areas, including nursing, business, information technology, trades, hospitality, education, arts and design, sport and fitness, and environmental science. It is notable as the only institution in Australia offering upper secondary, vocational, and higher education on the same campus. Its Bachelor of Nursing program (introduced in 2009) and applied degrees in business and health sciences are among its most prominent higher education offerings.

The institute operates across six Melbourne-area locations: Chadstone, Moorabbin, Glen Waverley, a Bourke Street city campus used primarily for nursing, a North Melbourne electrical training site, and an Eildon rural outdoor campus. The main campuses are in Melbourne's south-eastern suburbs, which are well-served by public transport. Holmesglen also hosts the Mackenzie Research Institute and the Centre for Applied Research and Innovation, supporting applied vocational research.
