The Department of Employment, Small Business and Training sets the contribution fee which may be changed annually. At present, this is equal to $1.60 per nominal hour for each unit of competency in which the participant is enrolled.
Concession fees of $0.64 per nominal hour are applicable to participants:
Information on course fees is detailed in the applicable course Program Structure and Pricing provided to the learner at the time of enrolment or can be accessed on our website https://aada.edu.au/course-information.
If an increase in the contribution fees occurs, trainees that will be impacted by the increase in the contribution fees will be advised prior to the implementation.
Trainees are required to pay a contribution towards the cost of their training. This will be invoiced at the completion of the unit of competency. Invoices will be required to be paid within 14 days by the methods outlined on the invoice.
Where the employer agrees to pay the contribution fee on behalf of the trainee, an agreement will be signed by the employer.
This agreement will list:
School-based Trainees
A full fee exemption applies to participants enrolling under a school-based traineeship.
If the trainee does not complete the qualification prior to leaving school, the trainee is obligated to commence paying student contribution fees for any units not yet deemed competent as of the date the training contract is changed to part-time or full-time. This then reverts to the non-concession and concession pricing.
Employer fees
AADA College reserves the right to charge the Employer an additional fee when the cost of training is not covered by the fees and subsidies. If any additional fees will be applicable for the Employer, these will be disclosed prior to the enrolment being processed.

The fee may be paid on behalf of the student by a third party unrelated to the RTO but cannot be paid or waived by the RTO (whether directly or indirectly), unless approved in writing by the department.

This is $80 per unit of competency for non-concession participants and $68 for concessional participants. These fees are inclusive of the $600 enrolment and resources cost. Enrolments into Certificate 3 Guarantee qualifications will not be processed until the co-contribution fee has been paid.

Partially completed units of competency will be reviewed individually by the activity log hours for each to see if a partial refund may be applicable.
