First Nations fee-free training
Fee Free Training for SA First Nations community
The SA Government is offering Fee-Free training to eligible First Nations South Australians wanting to train, retrain or upskill for in demand jobs.
We at the peak are thrilled to support this generous opportunity from Bradford Institute of Advanced Education & Skills SA, to build and strengthen the state’s First Nations workforce. With this training, you’ll be able to apply for roles to help improve lives through education, training, employment, housing or social support programs.
We are proud of the 13 students who graduated from the Certificate IV in Community Services (12th September 2024), who received a formal qualification, acknowledging their life experiences and skills developed.
This was the first student cohort dedicated to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander carers.
We are also proud to celebrate the newest graduates of the Diploma in Community Services (the second First Nations cohort) in August 2025.
If you would like be part of this exciting opportunity, choose from a number of qualifications available to study online or in person – click here to view the courses available.
