The government understands that it can be difficult to live on an Apprenticeship salary.  So to encourage more young people to take up a trade and complete their qualification, they offer what’s called a ‘Trade Support Loan’.

 

In a nut shell,                  you could be eligible for up to $20,000 over the life of your apprenticeship.

 

These loans are designed to ease financial difficulties especially in the early part of an apprenticeship.
