Charles Darwin University’s 2005 VET Student Guide is now available and can be accessed at http://www.cdu.edu.au/studentnet/docs/2005VTEStudentGuide.pdf
The Guide has handy information about enrolment, fees and payment, changes to enrolment, contacts and facilities at the University
In 2005, a VET Tuition Fee of $1.70 an hour will apply to people studying VET courses that the NT government helps to support financially.
In setting the fee level, the University has done away with materials fees for some 600 units. In 2005, a materials fee will only be retained in a small number of resource intensive units.
The VET Tuition Fee contributes to the cost of delivering the program, maintaining safe training equipment and the provision of student services and amenities provided by the student union.
To help students meet costs, the University will continue to offer a variety of flexible payment options including instalment plans and student loans and has broadened the scope of people who can apply for exemptions to VET Tuition Fees.
This now includes those who at the time of enrolment were receiving a range of pensions, benefits or allowances from the Commonwealth or are resident in locations more than 50kms from Darwin, Palmerston, Katherine, Batchelor, Alice Springs, Tennant Creek, Nhulunbuy and Jabiru.
