More than 5,500 aspiring early childhood educators are set to receive a financial boost as the NSW Government announces a new scholarship program.
The NSW Government is investing $23.5 million to provide scholarships worth up to $3,000 for students studying a Certificate III and up to $5,000 for a Diploma qualification.
Minister for Skills and Training Alister Henskens MP said the scholarships will work in conjunction with the 25,000 fee-free training places for a Certificate III or Diploma qualifications.
“Since August, the NSW Government has delivered thousands of fee-free places to bolster the pipeline of skilled and job-ready workers for the early childhood education sector,” Mr Henskens said.
The scholarship round will be open from 15 November 2022 to 15 January 2023.
