if you qualify for PPS (which it sounds like you do) and are studying, you MIGHT qualify for PES (pensioner education supplement) - you need to be studying a specific portion of a full time case load to be able to qualify. it's around $62 for a full time student (or anyone studying over 50% full time case load) - if you're part time (25-50%), you get a portion of that.

as to funding for the course, there is nothing c'link can offer in that way. you will have a pensioner concession card if you're on PPS, so may be eligible for a discount on course fees via the TAFE. if not, the only other option is to sign up with a job network member (via c'link) and speak to them about course funding. it's not easily available though...

hope that helped
