HOW ARE THESE QUALIFICATIONS FUNDED?
The General Training Pathway gives eligible Queenslanders access to government subsidised training. This subsidy covers up to and including one post-school certificate level III qualification in priority training areas. The General Training Pathway subsidy for a course is paid to the training provider to reduce the cost of the qualification to the student. The amount of subsidy provided by the General Training Pathway is determined by the Queensland Department of Trade, Employment and Training (DTET) based on their assessment of the demand for skilled workers in particular industries.
GENERAL TRAINING PATHWAY Who is eligible?
To access a subsidised training place under the Career Start Program, a student must meet the following criteria:
- aged 15 years or older;
