After receiving several enquiries the Department has made clarifications to the Experience + Training Grant Guidelines and Application Form.
This includes clarifying eligibility for the program—Experience+ Training is available when the worker, employer or RTO are not already receiving some form of financial assistance from another Australian Government source, or through state, territory or local government bodies, to pay for the nominated training course. The guidelines also clarify that Experience+ Training is designed to assist mature age mature age workers who are not themselves an apprentice or trainee.
