Initial registration fee
VETAB charges a fee for initial registration as a Registered Training Organisation (RTO); the fee varies depending on the number of units of competency or qualifications/courses in your scope of registration. Please note that there is no specific fee for renewal of registration (which happens every five years) as this is included in the annual fee.
Fees are subject to annual review in line with the Consumer Price Index and are adjusted on or after 1 January each year. For a full list of current fees see the 2009 VETAB Fees Schedule.
