Footnote:
From 2025, Fees Free will be paid as a reimbursement upon completion of the apprenticeship, covering the final two years of training or up to $12,000 (including GST), whichever comes first. This means apprentices may need to pay for a portion of their training upfront and then claim reimbursement upon successful completion. Eligibility criteria and payment timelines apply.
