Funding for Businesses

Training course rebate

A rebate payment is available for employing companies (including sole traders).

The rebate offered is a percentage of the advertised course cost. Courses and training activities currently approved for Keystone funding can be found HERE.

Who is eligible?

An eligible company is an 'employing company' where the business's principal activity is assessed as being on-site building and construction work, as defined in Schedule 2 of the Building and Construction Industry Training Fund Act 1990.

An eligible company will hold an Australian Business Number (ABN).

An eligible company will organise and pay for the cost of the training for its employees.

‘Employing companies' include sole traders and eligible host employers, where that host employer organises and pays for training.
