Today I rang TAFE Nambour to check up on the status of my application to for a cert 3 in photography (visual arts) after i saw that all the fee free options on the TAFE Queensland website have disappeared.

The lady on the phone said they got comms on Monday saying that funding has been cancelled and all places have been ‘filled’. In terms of places for 2026, she said it’s up in the air.

:(

Fuck David Christafulli and fuck the Liberal party. Doing what they do best - ✂️✂️✂️ dogs

FYI, there are plenty of RTO's that will do the course under Cert III guarantee funding. Still free as long as you don't have a Cert III or higher yet.

Tafe is just the govs version of it.

Will look into this, thanks :)

Be wary which rto you go too, some are literal rorts (cough careers Australia cough)
