What is Skilled Capital funding?
Skilled Capital was a funding program in the ACT to help students undertake Vocational Education and Training (VET). It provided eligible students with government subsidised training in priority areas and covers qualifications from Certificate II through to Advanced Diploma as well as skill sets.
