If you are an approved VET provider offering diploma, advanced diploma, graduate certificate and graduate diploma courses, you may be able to offer VET FEE-HELP.
How it works
An approved VET provider is a registered training organisation who has been approved by the Australian Government to offer VET FEE-HELP assistance to their students.
If approved, you can offer a VET FEE-HELP loan to:
- a student of any age
- an Australian citizen or holding a permanent humanitarian visa and resident in Australia for the duration of study
- studying toward a Diploma and above
- studying with an approved VET training provider.
A VET FEE-HELP student loan allows students to borrow funds to help pay for all or part of their tuition fees. The government pays student fees to the training provider on a student’s behalf. The student pays the loan back through the taxation system once their income is above the minimum repayment threshold.
Note – in South Australia only a few training providers are currently approved to offer VET FEE-HELP. VET-FEE HELP will be introduced in SA for Skills for All Training providers during 2012.
