- Bridging units
- Attempts
- On-job training and employer-based delivery
- Completion payments
- Student Course Fees and incidental expenses
- Student Course Fee Concessions, Fee Exemptions and reimbursement to the Training Provider
- Payments, including enterprise Training Providers.

Subsidy Calculators
The Subsidy Calculator allows you to estimate the subsidy for the courses you deliver under your Contract.
The Subsidy Calculator is an executable (.exe) file which will need to be downloaded to your PC and is accessed via the Provider Application using your STELA login credentials.
Some stakeholders may be granted access to the Subsidy Calculators upon request. Email WorkReady@sa.gov.au and indicate the name and nature of your organisation and the way you will benefit from having access to the Subsidy Calculator. Your email must come from your personal business address, not a generic admin@ address.
For AppleMac users
The Subsidy Calculator is optimised for window-based PC's only. If your organisation uses AppleMac products, complete the Subsidy Request Form (Excel) and submit it to WorkReady@sa.gov.au and we will perform the searches for you. Your results will be returned to you within 2 business days.
Result Code 70 and Academic Pass (AP)
The Minister for Employment, Higher Education and Skills (The Minister) has published a list of Units of Competency which are eligible for a subsidy payment for result code 70 and Academic Pass (AP). This code applies to units of competency in some qualifications that require students to achieve both on and off-job competency.
Detailed information can be found in the Data Collection and Payment Assessment Guideline.
The department is reviewing the Result Code 70 Academic Pass (70-AP) policy and process. Applications to add further Result Code 70 Academic Pass units of competency will not be accepted until the review has been completed.
