Continuing Education Fund (CEF)

The Continuing Education Fund (CEF) subsidises adults (aged 18 to 70) with learning aspirations to pursue continuing education and training courses. The new CEF enhancement measures has been implemented with effect from 1 April 2019. The scope of CEF courses will be expanded to all eligible courses registered in Qualifications Register, and students of the College could benefit from it. Each eligible applicant will be reimbursed their fees for a total subsidy up to $20,000#, upon successful completion of the relevant reimbursable courses, i.e. attained required academic performance and attendance.

Upon seeking reimbursement of the fees, the applicant must not have obtained any other publicly-funded financial assistance (such as FASP and SSSDP) for the same course. 

# Regarding the co-payment ratios by learners (i.e. the percentage of course fee to be borne by learners), the ratio for the first $10,000 subsidy is 20% of the course fee and that for the second $10,000 subsidy is 40% of the course fee.
