What is the Construction Training Fund?

The Construction Training Fund (CTF) is a Western Australian government initiative that provides funding for upskilling and short-course training for people who work in construction.

CTF's Upskilling & Short Course Funding program helps diversify your expertise and build a safer, more sustainable future. To confirm your eligibility and rebate amount, please contact CTF directly.

Our courses at Cailin are delivered by a Registered Training Organisation and qualify for CTF funding — meaning you could get a significant portion of your training costs back.
