The Department of Trade, Employment and Training lists 31 August as the opening date and 22 October 2026 as the deadline.
The initiative supports unemployed and underemployed Queenslanders. Community-based not-for-profits can apply, while councils, training providers and peak bodies may qualify under particular programs.
Support includes people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, young people and women returning to work. Organisations should check the relevant program guidelines before applying. This is funding for project providers, not a direct job offer.
