What is CSQ funding?
AND HOW CAN IT BENEFIT YOU?
Construction Skills Queensland is an independent, not-for-profit, industry-funded body supporting employers, workers, apprentices, trainees and career seekers in the building and construction industry.
If you’re considering upskilling in construction, you may be able to receive support from CSQ funding. Where CSQ funding doesn’t cover the full cost of the program, you will be required to contribute towards the remaining course fees.
CSQ funds important courses and training to make it easier for you to update your skills or the skills of your workers.
