What is Skills Tasmania funding?
Skills Tasmania is a state government program that helps the citizens of Tasmania access subsidised qualifications and the vocational training that leads to actual jobs and business opportunities.
Government funded training is available for most Tasmanians, but additional incentives exist for school students, new apprentices, and people who have recently lost their jobs.
