Is the Course Fee inclusive of the WSQ grant amount?

Yes, the course fee is the total fee payable to Intellisoft Systems for the course. If SSG approves your WSQ Grant application  and gives you a training grant, they will inform us. Based on the amount of WSQ Grant given, we will invoice your company for only the balance amount.

For Example, if the course fee is S$500, and the WSQ grant given is S$350(70% grant), then we will invoice you for the balance amount (S$500 – S$350) = S$150 only.
