All of our courses have different costs depending on a range of factors. These are, broadly speaking, mainly determined by the type of funding the course is delivered under, if available, and which state or territory the student is from. Many of our students access government funding to complete some or all of their studies. It is important to point out that government funding does not cover all of the costs of their training and students are expected to make some financial contribution to the cost of obtaining their chosen qualification.
Below are a series of links with information about costs specific to each qualification we offer, for each state and territory we currently train in. This information is current at the time of publishing, however costs are continually updated by government departments throughout the year. We endeavour to keep the information on this website as up to date as possible, but please ensure you confirm any costs with our office before enrolling by calling 02 4822 7109 or emailing This email address is being protected from spambots.
