Unlock Your Potential with NSW Government Subsidised Training
If you have been working as a Dental Assistant for years or are looking to sharpen your clinical skills, you may be eligible for significant financial support through the Entitlement Full Qualification (EFQ) program.
What is EFQ Funding?
The EFQ is a cornerstone of the NSW Government’s Smart and Skilled initiative. It is a non-repayable subsidy designed to help people obtain a qualification. By covering a significant portion of your tuition fees, the government ensures that essential industries (such as dental health) continue to be led by highly trained, qualified professionals.
This is not a loan. It is an investment in your career, where the government pays the majority of your course costs - as much as 45% - and you only pay the difference.
Why Apply?
- Remove Financial Barriers: Don’t let the cost of education hold you back. The NSW Government covers a large portion of the training costs.
- Advance Your Career: Bridge the gap between where you are and where you want to be with a Certificate III or IV in Dental Assisting.
- Industry Recognised: Gain the formal qualifications that practice managers across Australia respect and require.
