Appendix A: Become a host Learn Local

To support the scholarship recipient to make the right connections to complete their scholarship obligation requirements, Learn Local providers can express interest in becoming a host Learn Local by completing this form.

Scholarship recipients will then be given the contact details of a suitable host Learn Local provider, so they can make the necessary arrangements directly.

Host Learn Local providers will need to:

  • have a current Adult Community Further Education Board (ACFEB) pre-accredited service agreement
  • comply with all relevant Victorian and federal workplace laws / regulations relating to employing paid or volunteer staff
  • have the necessary insurances required for their staff
  • facilitate volunteer or paid pre-accredited teaching activities for the scholarship recipient including offering some support and mentorship
  • provide evidence to Departmental contact of the scholarship recipient’s scholarship obligation milestones (i.e. commencement date and total hours/days worked in the teaching year – noting the minimum required is 200 hours with a two year period upon completion of the qualification).

Participating Learn Local providers are eligible for a host incentive payment of $1,500.00 per scholarship recipient.

General disclaimer

The Department of Jobs, Skills, Industry and Regions does not accept any liability for the scholarship obligation arrangements made between the ACE scholarship recipient and the Learn Local.
