Skills SA Funding Application

Skills SA Funding Application

Funded by the South Australian Government
Use this form to submit an application to Asset College for Skills SA Government funding to subsidise the cost of an approved qualification.

South Australian government subsidised training provides eligible individuals with access to low-cost training in nationally recognised qualifications. This initiative supports South Australians to gain the skills they need to find work, change careers, or advance in their current job.

The program is designed to make vocational education more accessible by reducing the cost of training in areas with strong employment demand. Through this funding, eligible students can complete qualifications that lead to:
- Entry into the workforce or a new industry; or
- Career progression or upskilling within their current job or sector.
Asset College is an approved provider offering subsidised training in select qualifications under this program. These qualifications are delivered through flexible, online or blended learning options, with full trainer and student support.

A small student contribution fee applies, but most of the course cost is covered by the South Australian Government. There are also concession options for eligible individuals.

This funding is not a loan. You don’t need to repay it — it’s genuine support to help you get ahead.
