About QLD Higher Level Skills Funding
The Queensland Government’s Higher Level Skills program provides eligible individuals with access to a subsidised training place in selected certificate IV level or above qualifications, and priority skill sets. Subsidies are provided for a select number of certificate IV, diploma and advanced diploma level qualifications, and priority skill sets critical to productivity within the workplace.
The subsidy is provided through approved Registered Training Organisations (RTO’s) and is paid directly to the RTO as training is delivered and reported to the Department of Employment, Small Business and Training.
The subsidy represents the level of government contribution for a qualification and varies between qualifications based on a number of factors. The investment priority or importance of the training influences the size of the government subsidy. Training in vocational areas that align with critical industry skills needs and government priorities will receive a higher government subsidy.
