Overview
In this tutorial, we will discuss how to add a funded
contract for the state of Queensland (QLD) in the SMS (Student Management
System). Funded contracts help verify and track student eligibility for state funding, ensuring that only qualified students receive subsidies. This also helps providers manage and verify the specific entitlements under different funding programs. Streamlining the process of applying government funding within the SMS saves time and reduces administrative overhead, allowing for faster, more accurate handling of subsidies.
Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to add this:
