• you can complete a course by enrolling in units one at a time, therefore you can spread your fees across the whole study period, making it easier to budget

Existing Worker (Enterprise PPP) Traineeships

• If you are eligible, any of the qualifications on our scope that are designated as traineeships may be undertaken through a funding arrangement whereby the federal government pays a subsidy to your employer from which the training fees are paid. You can get more information on this from an Australian Apprenticeship Centre. We use Busy at Work but you are able to access information about this traineeship pathway from most Job Services Agencies and other Australian Apprenticeship Centres.
