Government Funding Grants are Available Now if You Want to Study Our Courses

Zoom Course

You can use the latest funding grants from the Australian government to study all the courses offered at the Australian College of Environmental Studies. These grants are available for those who are mid career and would like to study something different or for workers over 40 who’d like to learn a new skill. Most courses are available on Zoom now so you can study from anywhere in Australia.

By taking up a new course, you’ll be able to study a new skill or equip yourself for a new job. These funding grants apply to all of the Australian College of Environmental Studies courses so you’ll be able to pay a much reduced fee for all of our courses including: Professional Building Biologist; Professional Feng Shui Consultant; Mould Testing Technician; Electromagnetic Field Testing Technician; and Designing a Healthy Home Course
