Who is CSQ and how can you help me?

Construction Skills Queensland (CSQ) is an independent industry-funded body supporting employers, workers, apprentices and career seekers in the building and construction industry.

CSQ can help you connect with the skills and training you need. We know how important it is to invest in your skills, so it’s our mission to make it easier for you by:

01 Subsidising your training costs

02 Connecting you with RTOs

03 Providing industry research and information

Invest in your skills.
They’re your best tools.

CSQ is funded by an industry training levy. Put simply, CSQ receives a small a percentage of the costs of every construction project over a certain size. This money is then used to subsidise your training.

There are three programs on offer to help build your career: Higher Level Skills, Skills Assessment & Gap Training, and Short Courses.
