@tyme OHHHHHH okay haha 😅
Yeah, and I wonder if Centrelink will still accept it if someone does two different certificate IV's at the same time, even on DSP...what do you reckon?

Do you think doing two certs at a time is too hectic? Doing a cert doesn't mean you earn money, so I don't see how it affects your payment. Or are you saying if centrelink will pay for the cert @Blackcloud ?

@tyme yeah, I know that doing a course doesn't earn you money. I was thinking if I'm able to do both courses only part time then it would most likely fit the schedule.
And yeah, I do mean as in that if your payments will be affected if you do two courses at the same time.. like in terms of the hours of both courses you do per week (both in part time)

The studying shouldn't affect your centrelink payments unless you are earning money.
With courses though, I believe only one can be subsidised if they are the same level e.g both are cert 4s or both are diplomas.
Definitely worth while asking @Blackcloud

@tyme @Yeah from what I’m seeing, one is a free tafe course and the other one is not. so I guess that counts?
