          <inserted>Currently, the Training Guarantee for SACE Students (TGSS) is demand driven and school students will continue to be able to access courses that are listed as 'TGSS' on the WorkReady Subsidised Training List. Importantly, the list of courses has been refined to take into account the needs of industry and to target areas that can reasonably be expected to provide employment opportunities. This strengthens the student's chosen pathway. Currently, there is no reduction in the number of training places available for TGSS students and students will continue to have access to their choice of provider.</inserted>
