The Victoria Training Guarantee?
Vocational education and training is a great way to gain a nationally recognised qualification that will improve your ability to enter the workforce or enhance your career or job prospects.

The Victorian Training Guarantee is making training more accessible to people who do not have a post-school qualification, or who want to gain a higher level qualification than they already hold.

The Victorian Training Guarantee entitles eligible students to a government subsidised place through one of Victoria’s many Accredited Training Institutes or private Registered Training Organisations.

Am I eligible for the Victorian Training Guarantee?
To be eligible for a government subsidised training place, you must be aged:

• under 20 years

• aged 20-24 years (for training that will get you a higher
qualification than you already hold.)

• retrenched workers (available in any level of training)

NOTE: Training places are subject to admission requirements and availability.

What are the fees?
In 2010, the Victorian Government will cover between 70 - 90% of the cost. Fees are capped, so there is a maximum you will pay regardless of how much government subsidised training you complete in the year.

Can you get assistance with paying fees?
Concessions are available for study at Certificate I to IV levels for Health Care Card holders studying in a government subsidised place.

Apprentices and trainees may be eligible for a tuition fee concession at any course level, while Indigenous students always pay the minimum fee in a government subsidised training place.

Am I eligible?

Students must meet citizenship a nd other eligibility requirements for any government subsidised training at any course level.
