What is Education Finance?
Education Finance is a type of personal loan to pay for training.
Mediation Institute offers an interest free payment plan option but we can’t finalise your course and issue your certificate until you have finished paying for it.
With Education Finance it is a bit like getting a loan for a car or other similar purchase. You get to access the training and be certified, we get paid by the finance company and you continue to pay off the training for the period of time agreed in your loan contract.
Is this a Government Student Loan?
No. We do not work with the government VET Student Loans. The Education Finance is provided by a private business.
