Welcome to TAFE NSW. What kind of course are you interested in?
विद्यार्थी
म कम्प्युटर क्षेत्रमा काम गर्न चाहन्छु। IT को कुनै सर्टिफिकेट वा डिप्लोमा कोर्स छ?
Advisor
Yes, we offer Certificate IV in Information Technology and a Diploma of IT. The diploma takes about eighteen months and includes practical workplace experience.
विद्यार्थी
फी कति लाग्छ?
Advisor
If you're a permanent resident or citizen, the course is government-subsidised. The Diploma of IT is around four thousand dollars, and you can pay through a VET Student Loan with no upfront cost.

VET Student Loan भनेको HECS जस्तै हो?
Advisor
Similar concept, yes. You repay the loan through the tax system once your income reaches a certain threshold — currently around fifty-four thousand dollars per year.
विद्यार्थी
कोर्स कहिले सुरु हुन्छ?

We have two main intakes — February and July. Enrolment is open now for the next intake. I'd also suggest checking if you qualify for the JobTrainer fee-free program.
