Subsidised Training
NAISDA’s training is subsidised through the Federal Government and NSW Government.
Smart and Skilled funding subsidises the cost of course delivery and is provided directly to NAISDA.
There are other associated fees and costs that Developing and Practising Artists and their families need to consider. These include accommodation, food, uniforms, travel and personal items.
ABSTUDY can assist with costs including incidental allowance, rental assistance, living expenses and travel costs for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians undertaking study in an accredited training organisation such as NAISDA. Funding assistance can be subject to application and family circumstances.
