Study with Government Funding Assistance

The User Choice program provides ACT Government-subsidised training.

Subsidies are for eligible Australian Apprentices undertaking approved qualifications in the ACT.

The program provides funding for apprentices and trainees to undertake qualifications that meet current and future workforce needs.

Academy Green Learning is an approved provider, offering nationally recognized qualifications that support career growth and workforce development in the ACT.

Skilled Capital is an ACT Government training initiative, funded by the ACT and Australian Governments.
