If your employers agree to sponsor you for the course, then you can ask them to complete the sponsorship section on the enclosed enrolment form. We will then invoice the company directly for your fees. You will find the address in the telephone directory, and you should apply to them as soon as possible and definitely before enrolling for your course of study. If you obtain the loan the University will send you an invoice for your course fees, which you pass on to the TEC for payment. The Department of Social Statistics offers a limited number of Bursaries to privately funded students.
Bursaries can cover up to one quarter of the total fee.
Please indicate on the enrolment form whether you wish to receive a Bursary Application form. The costs of vocational training are eligible for tax relief. The Inland Revenue Information Leaflet IR119 gives the detailed information. At present courses leading to the RSS Certificates and Diploma are not approved vocational qualifications and so are not eligible for automatic tax relief at source. However you may like to approach your tax office to seek relief on an individual basis.
