Universities and TAFEs will be offering discounts on online courses starting in May to help fill skill shortages in the economic rebound once the coronavirus pandemic has run its course. Education Minister Dan Tehan said the initiative will provide students and workers with the opportunity to re-skill or advance their careers after the economic disruption caused by COVID-19, while being able to maintain social distancing.
