The Independent Tertiary Education Council Australia (ITECA) is all about getting involved. The ITECA Queensland Funded Provider Interest Group empowers you with the information to make informed decisions about supporting students through the 'Skills Assure’ funding program managed by the Queensland Government.

If your organisation has a 'Skills Assure’ funding contract or is looking to obtain one, this is a great opportunity to collaborate with the management of independent Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) that share your commitment to excellence.
