Additional funding to support training is available through the Skills Canberra branch of the ACT Chief Minister, Treasury and Economic Development Directorate for Australian Apprentices who may have learning difficulties. It is also available to support students who may require additional support in areas such as literacy and numeracy, sign language interpreter services, or mentoring. RTOs can apply in writing to Skills Canberra for funding for such services and applications will be considered on the individual merits of each case. Information is available in the Skills Canberra
