    VET Student Loans (VSL)

    This course may be eligible for a VET Student Loan — a Commonwealth income-contingent loan that lets you defer some or all of your course fees, similar to HECS-HELP. VSL applies to eligible Diploma-level and above courses only. Loan caps and eligibility depend on your citizenship/residency status and the specific course. Confirm your eligibility and loan cap directly with the provider before enrolling.

    Fee-Free TAFE

    This course is part of the Fee-Free TAFE initiative, a joint Commonwealth–state program that removes or reduces student fees for a set number of places in priority courses and skill sets. Places are limited and allocated by the provider, so availability isn't guaranteed even where a course is listed. Contact the provider to confirm a fee-free place is currently available to you.

    Career Boost (Queensland)

    This course (or skill set) appears on the Queensland Subsidised Training List and may be subsidised under Career Boost. Eligibility and the number of subsidised places you can access depend on your circumstances and prior training history. Confirm your eligibility and subsidised fee with the provider.
