Frequently asked questions

Got a question?

We have answered the most common ones people have before they enquire.

Is the training really free?
For eligible students, government-subsidised places can cover most or all of the course cost - but it is not automatically free for everyone, and a student co-contribution fee may apply. We check your funding and tell you exactly where you stand before you enrol.
Who actually delivers the course?
The training is delivered by an accredited Registered Training Organisation (RTO), not by Learn First Australia. We match you to a suitable RTO delivering a nationally recognised qualification, and we will always tell you which provider that is.
Am I eligible for funding?
Eligibility depends on things like your state, residency, age, work situation and any qualifications you already hold. The quick match runs an initial check - an indication, not a guarantee. The RTO confirms eligibility before enrolment.
Can you match me if I don't see my course?
Yes. Tell us what you want to study and we will find an accredited RTO delivering it and check your funding - even if it is not listed here.
What happens after I enquire?
An advisor reviews your answers, confirms your funding, and talks you through your matched course and next steps - usually within 1-2 business days. There is no obligation to enrol.
