What Youth Access Initiative funds
A program helping young people with care or youth justice experience, and those in Education First Youth Foyers, access vocational education and training with tuition fees waived under Skills First. What is the Youth Access Initiative? Young people on child protection orders, youth justice orders and those residing in Victorian Education First Youth Foyers are among the most disadvantaged in our community. They often face complex challenges that make it harder to access education and training.

How to apply
Applications are made through
Department of Jobs, Skills, Industry and Regions
Not through GrantWindow. We do not take applications, charge a fee or act as an intermediary, and any site that offers to apply on your behalf for a government grant is worth a very careful look. The direct link to Department of Jobs, Skills, Industry and Regions's own page for this program is one of the two facts a trial opens, alongside the exact closing date.
- Confirm details on the official page before applying. GrantWindow records what the funder published and when we read it. We are not the funder and this page is not legal, financial or eligibility advice.

When does Youth Access Initiative close?
Department of Jobs, Skills, Industry and Regions accepts applications on an ongoing basis and publishes no closing date. Ongoing rounds do get paused and closed without much notice, so this listing is re-read every night and the alert list is told the day it changes.
How much funding is available through Youth Access Initiative?
Department of Jobs, Skills, Industry and Regions does not publish a funding amount for this program, so this page does not show one. The figure, where there is one, is in the guidelines Department of Jobs, Skills, Industry and Regions publishes on their own page, which this record names and carries the link to.
Who can apply for Youth Access Initiative?
Department of Jobs, Skills, Industry and Regions lists this program as open to individuals. That is a starting filter rather than the full eligibility test: the criteria in the funder's guidelines are what decide an application.
Is Youth Access Initiative still open?
It was ongoing intake when we last read Department of Jobs, Skills, Industry and Regions's own page, on 24 Oct 2026. Every source is re-read nightly and this page carries the date of the last read.
Who runs Youth Access Initiative, and does GrantWindow take a cut?
Youth Access Initiative is offered by Department of Jobs, Skills, Industry and Regions in Victoria. Applications are made through the funder, never through GrantWindow: we take no applications, charge no fee and act as no intermediary. Any site offering to apply on your behalf for a government grant is worth a very careful look.
