Skilling Queenslanders for Work

Skilling Queenslanders for Work helps you to gain the skills, qualifications and experience to enter and stay in the workforce.

It is part of the Queensland Government’s commitment to improving work opportunities for disadvantaged Queenslanders who may be facing challenges accessing training and getting a job.

The Queensland Government's Skilling Queenslanders for Work initiative represents a significant investment of $420 million over 6 years to support up to 54,000 Queenslanders into work.

Skilling Queenslanders for Work funds training and support for unemployed or underemployed people, with a focus on young people (including those in and transitioned from out-of-home care), Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, people with disability, mature-age jobseekers, women re-entering the workforce, veterans and ex-service personnel, and people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds.
