Eligible apprentices, trainees, construction workers, self-employed tradespeople, and business owners can access significant savings on approved training courses. With CTF funding, you could save up to 70% on metro courses and 80% on regional courses.

Best of all, we take care of the claim process for you. As an approved bulk billing provider, we apply your funding at the time of enrolment, so you only pay the reduced gap fee.

How Much Can I Save?

Eligible students can receive up to $1,700 in funding per approved course, helping to reduce the cost of professional development and mandatory industry training. Please visit the CTF Levy & Disbursements Guide for detailed information about how rebates are calculated.

CTF funding can be used for training that helps you:

• Update and expand your trade skills

• Obtain or renew occupational licences
