What qualifications can I study through Skills SA?

You can study nationally recognised qualifications ranging from Certificate II to Advanced Diploma. Skills sets aligned to workforce priorities are also included under the subsidy.

Do Skills SA courses lead to jobs?

Yes. Skills SA is aligned with South Australia’s industry demand forecasts. Training is offered in areas with real job opportunities, such as healthcare, trades, business, and IT.

Can I upskill if I already have a qualification?

In some cases, yes. If your previous qualification isn’t aligned with current job market needs or was completed more than seven years ago, you may still be eligible for subsidised training.

How is Skills SA different from other state-based funding?

Skills SA is tailored to South Australia’s economic and workforce needs. The program places a strong focus on industry alignment and training quality, ensuring job readiness for SA residents.

Where can I get personalised support?

You can call the Skills SA info line at 1800 673 097 or visit a Skills SA contact centre for in-person guidance on eligibility and course selection.
