The short answer

The independent signals behind this qualification are weak right now. Specifically: the official shortage list does not rate its occupations in shortage. These are official statistics, not a promise about any individual's result.

Official shortage list

None of the occupations this qualification leads to is rated as in shortage on the official list. In the 2025 Occupation Shortage List assessment, Cotton Farm Worker, Grain, Oilseed, Pulse and Pasture Farm Worker, Sugar Cane Farm Worker and Vineyard Worker are rated not in shortage.

What does it cost, and who funds it?

State funding for AHC30624 is being verified against official program lists.

Eligibility and student contributions vary by program and provider. The official state listing is the source of truth. In a subsidised place the government pays most of the tuition and you pay a co-contribution set by the program and provider.

How we calculate these figures

Get Course maps AHC30624 to its occupations using the register’s own outcome wording, shown with ANZSCO codes (here, 8422) so the mapping can be checked. Job advertisement counts come from the Jobs and Skills Australia Internet Vacancy Index and count online ads, not vacancies filled. Enrolment counts come from NCVER Total VET Activity and count people in training, not completions. Outcome benchmarks marked “typical” are medians computed by Get Course across all qualifications at the same level in the same NCVER collection; they are derived figures, not official NCVER benchmarks. Funding rows appear only after verification against the official state program list.
