CSQ FUNDING
Construction Skills Queensland Funded Courses
If you are currently working in the Queensland building and construction industry and wish to develop your skills, you may be eligible for CSQ funding. Your Course may be subsidised by Construction Skills QLD, which means CSQ may pay a significant portion of your Student Fees.
To be Eligible for CSQ Funding, you will need to meet the below Eligibility Criteria, and must provide Evidence of eligibility at time of Enrolment.
With CSQ Funding you may also apply for Recognition of Prior Learning ( RPL ) for up to 50% of the Units of Competency required, which could reduce the duration of your Course.
