What is Certificate 3 Guarantee?

The Certificate 3 Guarantee program, funded by the Quensland Government, supports eligible individuals to complete their first post-school certificate III qualification. It also supports school students to access training and Queensland's Year 12 graduates to transition to employment by providing fee-free training in high priority qualifications.

The Certificate 3 Guarantee is targeted at certificate III qualifications because they are considered the entry-level qualification most often needed to gain employment in many industry sectors.

Foundation skills and lower level vocational qualifications may also be delivered based on the learning needs of the student. 

The full list of subsidised qualifications is listed below.

Given the benefits that accrue to individuals from training, students undertaking certificate III training and non-concessional students undertaking lower level training, will be required to contribute to the costs of their training through a co-contribution fee.

The fee may be paid on behalf of the student by the employer or a third party, but cannot be paid or waived by Martyr Training Services.

Fees for concessional and non concessional students can be found in each course description. Read More…
