Skilled Capital Funding

Skilled Capital allows eligible ACT students to enrol in subsidised qualifications from Certificate II through to Advanced Diploma as well as skill sets.

What is Skilled Capital funding?

Skilled Capital was a funding program in the ACT to help students undertake Vocational Education and Training (VET). It provided eligible students with government subsidised training in priority areas and covers qualifications from Certificate II through to Advanced Diploma as well as skill sets.

Places under Skilled Capital ACT were finalised in December 2021. All new training opportunities are now being offered through JobTrainer until the end of 2024.
