Just gotta say this is one of the worst things introduced into the study system and a lot of people are having problems with it.
If someone needs a certain certificate but already have a higher cert/dip, they are no longer eligible for government funding. That wouldn't be that bad if so many courses weren't so expensive.
Introduced to stop those who just go from course to course for years and years, racking up debt. Why not just set the cap lower rather than prevent people from doing a qualification they will need?
Anybody else needing a lower cert or wanting a change in career and having or had this issue?
