10 years of life changing scholarships
TAFE Queensland Scholarships open for application.
After a decade of changing lives, TAFE Queensland's landmark Scholarship program is back for its 2025 round, officially opening on 7 July.
Now in its 10th year, the TAFE Queensland Scholarship program has awarded more than $3.4 million in scholarships to over 720 students - empowering everyday Queenslanders to pursue their vocational education goals and build better futures.
TAFE Queensland Chief Executive Officer John Tucker said this year marks a significant milestone for the organisation's flagship support program.
"Over the past decade, we've seen firsthand how vocational education and training can transform lives," Mr Tucker said.
"Through our scholarship program, we've helped students overcome financial and social barriers and achieve incredible things."
"There’s no greater investment than supporting people to reach their full potential. We're proud to help Queenslanders gain qualifications that empower them to contribute meaningfully to their communities and industries,” he said
Applications for the 2025 round of scholarships will be open from 7 July to 30 September 2025, offering 100 scholarships valued at $5,000 each.
Scholarships can be used to help cover course fees, textbooks, and living expenses while studying any TAFE Queensland course from a Certificate III through to an Advanced Diploma or Bachelor and Masters Degree, across more than 60 campus locations or online.
With more than 1,000 applications received each year, Mr Tucker encourages all Queenslanders, whether school leavers, career changers, or up-skillers to apply.
“Whether you’re just starting out or looking for a fresh start, now is the time to take the leap. We want to hear your story,” he said.
Scholarships are made possible thanks to the generous support of our sponsors and donors, including the Australian Maritime Safety Authority, the Australian Refrigeration Council, Samford Community Bank (Bendigo Bank), CleanCo, CPL Mylestones, Exemplar Health, Fujitsu, QLD Hydro, Microsoft, Orro, RACQ, and Technology One.
