When will these new fee increases begin? What date are the new fees set to increase?

The fee increases relate to all courses, exams and training occurring in 2024. The date of registration and payment of these fees will depend on the activity.

Why are fees increasing?

The SET training fees, exam fees and course fees have not been adjusted to accurately reflect CPI increases over the last 5 years, nor have they been validated and set against actual costs. This has contributed to education and training revenue not covering education and training costs.
