FAQ – How Can I Finance My Training?

There are a few ways to finance your adult education.

  1. Take out a personal loan from a bank
  2. Make small weekly payments via a study payment plan. (available at APC)
  3. Pay for training using your own finances

Quite often, paying for training up-front can be challenging – that’s why we’d like to show you an affordable and simple way to finance your study.

Personal loans can be relatively simple to arrange through your bank and interest payments could be a little less than that of a credit card.

Apply to study via a payment plan whereby you make a deposit, then low weekly or fortnightly repayments.
