THE VICTORIAN TRAINING GUARANTEE –
A VICTORIAN GOVERNMENT INITIATIVE

The Victorian Training Guarantee is making TAFE and training more accessible to people who do not have a post-school qualification, or who want to gain a higher level qualification than they already hold. This entitles eligible students to a government subsidised place through one of Victoria’s TAFE institutes, university TAFE divisions, Adult Community Education organisations, or private registered training providers.

If you are aged under 20 years, you are eligible for a government subsidised TAFE or training place (subject to admission requirements and availability). If you are aged 20 – 24 years, you are eligible for a government subsidised TAFE or training place, providing you will achieve a higher qualification than you already hold (subject to admission requirements and availability). An unlimited number of government subsidised places are available for people studying Diplomas and Advanced Diplomas, providing they do not already hold an equivalent or higher qualification. Training is delivered with Victorian & Commonwealth Government Funding.
