Co-Contribution Fees

Students receiving funding under the Certificate 3 Guarantee program must contribute towards the cost of their course/training. The co-contribution fees differ for each course; refer to the following table/s for pricing.

Please note, pricing may be different for delivery methods (online, campus and workplace). The price tables detail the fees and charges due prior to any outcome being reported. Fees are always rounded down.

Fees are broken down to a unit level so students can calculate the cost of their course accurately when they have Credit Transfers* applied.

Fees may be paid on your behalf by an employer or another third party (but not by Strategix). If you are required to pay fees personally you will be given a payment advice that details the total amount due and a payment schedule.

 Fees are calculated by Course Fee ÷ No Units – Credit Transfers and Gap units = Total due.

Info

Example: If a course fee is $20 and the qualification contains 13 units and the student 3 Credit Transfers, the course fees will be calculated as follows:

 $20 ÷ 13 = $1.53 per unit

 $20 – 3 Credit transferred units @ $1.53 = $15.35 total

*Credit transfers must be supported by a copy of the certificate, statement of attainment or USI transcript.

Students have the option of choosing multiple methods to pay for their course fees (i.e. eftpos, in person, over the phone), refer to the Fees and Charges Information Sheet for more details.

Concession

A student may access concessional pricing as follows:

  • The Student holds a Health Care concession card or Pensioner concession card issued under Commonwealth law, or is the partner or a dependant of a person who holds a Health Care concession card or Pensioner concession card, and is named on the card; or

  • The Student issues Strategix with an official form under Commonwealth law confirming that the Student, his or her partner or the person of whom the Student is a dependant, is entitled to concessions under a Health Care or Pensioner concession card; or

  • The Student is an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander person. Acceptable evidence is as stated on the AVETMISS VET Enrolment Form.

Fees and Charges

DTWD requires students receiving funding under the PIT program to contribute towards the cost of their course/training, this is referred to as a Student Tuition Fee*. The fee may be paid on the students behalf by an employer or another third party (but not by Strategix). If the student/s are required to pay fees personally they will be given an itemised invoice.

*The Student tuition fees are indicative only and are subject to change given individual circumstances at enrolment. Additional fees may apply such as Student service and resource fees. 

table here

Students receive an invoice at the commencement of each Unit of Study for the portion of fees relevant to the subjects included in the Unit of Study. Invoices only include the subjects commenced in that unit of study. Where a qualification delivery runs over multiple years, a student will receive updated invoice at the recommencement of study. Fees are calculated as per the Nominal Hours at the subject level.

For example, CHCCOM005 is 50 hours, the tuition fee applicable to a Non-Concession student will be $0.97 x 50 hours = $48.50.

Fee Exemptions

Students not enrolled at school are exempt from course and resource fees if they:

  • Are under the care of the Chief Executive Officer of the Department of Communities; and

  • Are a secondary school-aged person; or

  • Are under 18 years of age.

Fee Waiver

Students may access a Fee waiver if they are experiencing severe financial hardship for courses. Students must provide evidence of thier reasoning in line with the departments criteria for financial hardship. 

Financial Hardship Criteria

A fee waiver cannot be given unless ALL of the following criteria are met.

Criteria for Severe Financial Hardship

The student does not have the disposable income to pay the fees via instalments without compromising their ability to meet their basic living needs or those of their dependents.

3

There is no basis for concluding that the student’s financial circumstances are likely to change within a reasonable period (e.g. 12 months).

Concession

Students may access the concession rate for subjects whilst the concession is valid. Where the concession is not valid, the full fees are payable for the relevant subjects. Concession is only available to those subjects commenced while the concession card/evidence is valid. Any subject commenced after expiry will be charged at the non-concession rate. 

Student who hold the following may be entitled to the concession rate on course fees whilst valid:

  • Persons and dependants of persons holding:

    • A Pensioner Concession Card

    • A Repatriation Health Benefits Card issued by the Department of 9 Veterans’ Affairs

    • A Health Care Card.

  • Persons and dependants of persons for whom the Commonwealth’s JobKeeper payments are being received

  • Persons and dependants of persons in receipt of the Youth Allowance

  • Persons and dependants of persons who are inmates of a custodial institution

  • Secondary school-aged persons, not enrolled at school.

For the following Commonwealth programs, appropriate evidence of a student’s eligibility for concession is:

  • JobKeeper - a statutory declaration from an employer confirming they are in receipt of JobKeeper payments for the student

  • Jobactive, Online Employment Services, or the ParentsNext program - a letter from the Commonwealth services provider confirming the student’s participation in the program.
