Accessing Tasmanian Government funding
Related documents
RTOs who wish to access Tasmanian Government funding to provide subsidised training to learners in Tasmania must be endorsed by Skills Tasmania.
Current endorsed RTOs are listed in our Endorsed RTO List as at 15th December (XLSX 9.1 MB).
Endorsed RTO system closed
The Skills Tasmania Endorsed RTO (ERTO) system has been closed.
RTOs that wish to access Tasmanian Government funding are encouraged to contact Skills Tasmania.
From early 2026, the TasVET Supplier program will replace the Skills Tasmania RTO endorsement system. All existing and prospective training providers will need to apply under TasVET to be eligible to access Skills Tasmania grant programs.
While we transition to the new program, existing endorsed RTOs will retain their status and access to grant programs.
Detailed information will be provided directly to currently endorsed RTOs and published on this webpage in early 2026.
If you have any questions, please contact the Quality, Policy and Compliance team at TasVETSupplier@skills.tas.gov.au.
Do I need to be endorsed to be able to deliver training in Tasmania?
RTOs that are not endorsed but that are registered through Australian Skills Quality Authority (ASQA) and scoped to deliver training in Tasmania are able to deliver training but will not be able to access Tasmanian Government funding.
Non-endorsed RTOs who deliver training in Tasmania are not required to report data to Skills Tasmania. However, you must report to the Office of Tasmanian Assessment, Standards and Certification (TASC) and National Centre for Vocational Education Research (NCVER) on a quarterly basis. Please refer to the TASC and NCVER websites for further information.
Skills Tasmania Grant Agreement
The Skills Tasmania Grant Agreement and Standard Conditions Manual (PDF 1.1 MB) sets out the terms and conditions for delivery of Tasmanian Government subsidised training. All eligible RTOs who receive funding through a Skills Tasmania grant program will enter into this agreement on behalf of the Crown in Right of Tasmania.
