Statement of VET Tuition Assurance
Under the standards for Registered Training Organisations regulated by the Australian Skills Quality Authority (ASQA) Selmar Institute of Education (Selmar) must comply with the VET Tuition Assurance requirements. These are to protect students who have paid full tuition fees in the event that Selmar ceases to provide the VET course in which a student is enrolled.
In the event that Selmar ceases to provide the VET Course in which a student is enrolled the student is entitled to a choice of:
- A place in the same or a similar VET Course with another Registered Training Organisation without the requirement to pay the Registered Training Organisation any tuition fees for any of the units of competency you have already paid; Or
- A refund of the upfront fees you have paid for any units of competency you have not commenced because Selmar ceased providing that VET Course.
Selmar meets its VET Tuition Assurance obligations through membership of the Australian Council for Private Education and Training Australian Students Tuition Assurance Scheme (ACPET ASTAS). The scheme covers students who are Australian Citizens or permanent residents of Australia and have paid full tuition fees in advance of commencing their VET course.
