The competition finals were held from 24th- 26th July 2008 at BMW's National Training Centre in Mulgrave, Melbourne. During the competition, industry leaders and trade associations gave training and presentations, which were open to competitors and trade spectators.

In order to showcase the best talent, the SACHS Masters is only open to teams of 3 competitors who are fully qualified, each with at least 1 year post-apprenticeship experience in the trade.
