Certificate III in Business (Government Funded)

Qualification Descriptor

Certificate III in Business requires 12 modules.

A minimum of 8 units from the Common Business units at Certificate III, listed below, including BSBCMN311A Maintain Workplace safety.

And 4 units from the Business Services Trainer Package or any other endorsed Training Package, of which a minimum of 2 units must be from a Certificate III qualification.

Units from other Training Packages must not duplicate units selected from the Business Services Training Packages.

All units selected must contribute to and combine to form a work outcome.

Please note that these contain some components of work outcomes that are similar and some significant differences. They are, therefor, not equivalent to each other. However, competence in one unit is evidence that part of competence in the other has been achieved.

In any case where the packaging of this qualification meets the rules of a specialists qualification at this level, then the specialist qualifications and not the generic qualifications must be awarded.

Government Funding

The government understands the nation’s competitive advantage is based on human capital,  so a portion of Government revenue is given back in employer training incentives. This covers up to 100% of training undertaken by your team.

As an RTO (Registered Training Organisation) we are able to offer you the availability of having your employees trained and competent to a Government Certification Accreditation.

There is Government funding of up to $4,000 per person currently available to the employer for eligible participants enrolling in one of our nationally accredited programs.

The Government funding is all organised by us in conjunction with the New Apprenticeship Centre (NAC) in accordance with State Training Authority Guidelines.
