NEW!! Intellitrain wins NSW government tender for Strategic Skilling Program (SSP).

Having won the tender in 2009 for PPP funding, Intellitrain were again successful in winning the new funding scheme - SSP. This means, that Intellitrain may be able to provide heavily subsidised training to those people who live and/or work in NSW.

As an example, of how this funding works:

The normal course fee for the Diploma of Financial Services (Financial Planning) is $4340. Eligible students under this funding would only be required to pay the equivalent of the TAFE enrolment fee which is $637.  This represents a saving of of over $3700!
