Government Funded Training for Businesses and Employees

 

To assist and support Australian businesses, the Australian Government provides $4,000 for every eligible employee who enrols in an approved training course.

This funding is made available through the Australian Apprenticeships Program and allows you to up-skill and retain eligible staff without being out of pocket and may only be available for a limited time.


The funding is paid directly to the employer organisation and the $4,000 per eligible employee is paid as $1500 after 90 days and $2,500 upon completion of the qualification.
