What is NT Training Entitlement funding?

The Northern Territory Training Entitlement also covers foundation skills or lower level qualifications needed to complete the qualification. The entitlement does not apply to the higher education sector.
The full cost of training is covered by the Northern Territory Training Entitlement. However, a non-refundable administration fee is charged and payable by all students.
