Enrolment Forms

This course is delivered by Community Training Australia, which requires the completion of enrolment forms that can not be scanned and uploaded to the internet. If you would like to enrol into this course, please contact us providing a mailing address and we can mail you an enrolment pack.

Once all required forms have been completed and signed, you have two methods of delivering your application to us:

Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) and Credit Transfers

RPL is the process of collecting the evidence that you have the required skills and knowledge already to provide the qualification or statement of attainment for a specific unit of competency. If you believe that you have enough experience in this field to demonstrate your skills and knowledge or have gained skills through a formal training pathway or a mix of these, you should enquire about RPL. Related industry experience should be in a role specific to this qualification and include significant work related to the units listed above. In other situations, you may have already completed training for some of the required units. In this situation you may be eligible for Credit Transfer.

ABSTUDY Information

This course is considered by Centrelink to qualify as full-time study, and as such all our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students are eligible to receive ABSTUDY benefits for the duration of their study. These benefits include Government-funded travel to Townsville for study, accommodation and meals while you study in Townsville, and depending on income a fortnightly allowance paid to your bank account. Please click the button below to download appropriate ABSTUDY forms and for more information. You can submit the appropriate ABSTUDY forms with your enrolment application and we will forward them on your behalf, or you can apply to Centrelink directly and notify us that you intend to claim ABSTUDY so that we can arrange your travel and accommodation for you. Please note: ABSTUDY requires a minimum of three (3) weeks in advance in order to process travel and accommodation applications for our students (added to our administrative time to process your enrolment application). If we do not receive your enrolment pack with time to process before this minimum period, there is a good chance that the travel and accommodation for your first block will not be funded initially, and you will have to organise your own travel and accommodation for this first block. However, assuming your application to ABSTUDY is successful after this point, you may claim back a rebate for the money spent on these arrangements so long as you keep your receipts (the form required to claim back money spent on study-related travel and accommodation is also available to download through the button below).
