Certificate 3 Guarantee
Subsidised Nationally Accredited Training
About the training
The Certificate 3 Guarantee program provides eligible Queenslanders with an opportunity to complete their first post-school certificate III qualification subsidised by the Queensland Government. Individuals are required to pay a reduced co-contribution fee to gain access to the government subsidy.
Subsidised training Under the Certificate 3 Guarantee
Concession card holders pay as little as $20 and non-concessional students pay just $50. The remainder of the course fees are subsidised under the Certificate 3 Guarantee program. It is important that you take the time to consider and compare your training options and costs as a completed Certificate III course will use your Certificate 3 Guarantee subsidy entitlement.
Student fees may be paid on behalf of a student by a referring agency such as a Workforce Australia Provider or other employment service provider. High school graduates, school leavers and Yr13 students may also apply.
