SPECIAL MARITIME TRAINING CALENDAR
This qualification is relevant to individuals operating remotely piloted aircraft systems (RPAS), in compliance with relevant regulatory requirements of the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) and national operating standards. Remote pilots operating at this level will apply non-technical and technical knowledge and skills to demonstrate autonomy and judgement and will take limited responsibility in known and stable operational contexts within established regulatory parameters. Licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this qualification at the time of publication. This qualification aligns to Remote Pilot Licensing requirements described in Civil Aviation Safety Regulation (CASR) Part 101 — Unmanned aircraft and rockets and Part 101 Manual of Standards. Civil and military personnel seeking certification as remote pilots should check requirements with CASA. |

The program also supports school students to access training and Queensland's Year 12 graduates to transition to employment by providing free training in high priority qualifications.
Under the Certificate 3 Guarantee, the Queensland Government provides a subsidy for a range of certificate III level vocational qualifications.
Foundation skills training and lower-level vocational qualifications may also be subsidised in certain circumstances.
You must:
Additional opportunities may be available in exceptional circumstances where an individual does not meet the eligibility criteria for the program but circumstances indicate the objectives of the program will be met through a confirmed employment benefit. Additional opportunities will be considered on a case-by-case basis, upon request by a prospective student.
To learn more, prospective students can contact the Department of Employment, Small Business and Training on 1300 369 935.
It is important that you choose the right course for you to take full advantage of the program.
For information on choosing a training provider, read our training consumer tips.
The Queensland Skills Gateway displays the courses available under the Certificate 3 Guarantee and provides information about what they cover, the careers they can lead to, and the training providers approved to deliver them.
As a condition of your enrolment, you will be required to complete a student training and employment survey within 3 months of finishing or discontinuing your training.
The subsidy represents the level of government contribution for a qualification, and varies between qualifications based on a number of factors.
The investment priority or importance of the training influences the size of the government subsidy. Training in vocational areas that align with important economic and industry skills needs will receive a higher government subsidy.
A higher subsidy will also be paid to support participation by disadvantaged learners (concessional students). More information on concessional student status is detailed in the Certificate 3 Guarantee program policy.
Students undertaking certificate III level training and non-concessional students undertaking lower-level vocational training are required to pay student co-contribution fees.
The amount of your co-contribution fees will vary depending on the course you undertake and the training provider you choose.
The fee may be paid on your behalf by an employer or another third party, but cannot be paid or waived by the training provider, or any organisation related to the training provider, unless approved by the department.
However, full costs (including co-contribution fees) for Certificate 3 Guarantee high priority qualifications are covered under the Fee Free TAFE program.
