About Online Courses

Online courses offer the freedom to study from anywhere, making it easier to balance your education with your personal and professional commitments. With fully remote learning, you’ll have access to all your study materials, resources, and communication with educators through a virtual platform, allowing you to work towards your qualifications at your own pace. This flexibility makes online learning a great option for those looking to upgrade their skills without the need for in-person classes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get Centrelink support while studying an online course?

Yes, Centrelink may offer financial assistance for eligible students enrolled in approved online courses. Look for courses listed on the National Register of VET or those linked to JobTrainer or Youth Allowance. Check your eligibility here.

Does Centrelink cover free online courses?

Centrelink doesn’t directly “cover” courses but may provide payments like Youth Allowance, Austudy or JobSeeker. Government-funded courses such as Fee-Free TAFE may be more suitable if cost is a concern.

What online courses are best for returning to the workforce

Courses in aged care, childcare, admin, and tech (like Cert III in Business or IT support) are popular among those re-entering the workforce.

How do I know if an online course is legitimate in Australia?

Check if the provider is an RTO (Registered Training Organisation) and listed on training.gov.au. Also, look for accreditation or recognition by Australian universities or state governments.

Can I work and study online at the same time?

Yes, that’s one of the biggest benefits of online learning. Most courses offer self-paced or part-time options so you can balance study with casual or part-time work.
