Caregivers Training Grant (CTG)
The Caregivers Training Grant is a $200 annual subsidy that lets caregivers attend approved courses to better care for their loved ones. The $200 subsidy is provided for each care recipient every financial year (from April to March of the following year). If multiple caregivers of the same care recipient wish to attend training, the $200 would need to be shared among the family members.
Amount of Grant: $200 per Care Recipient
*The $200 grant can be utilised:
1) To attend any of the CTG Approved Training Courses over the financial year at any VWO.
2) By different caregivers of the same care recipient.
Validity: 1 April – 31 March the following year
Payment Required by Caregiver: Co-payment of $10 (subject to the balance of CTG)
