There is no need to contact CITB to request access to the application.
Step 2: Submit your application
When it is available to you (once you have passed probation), log in to FundHub and complete the Work Equipment Voucher application.
CITB will then review the information provided and progress your request.
Step 3: Receive an outcome
Step 4: Choose your supplier
If your application is approved, you’ll receive further instructions on how to select your preferred supplier.
You’ll be asked to complete a short online form indicating where you would like your voucher to be issued.

FAQs
Where can I spend the Tool Voucher?
- Bianco Construction & Industrial Supplies
- Mitre 10
- Tool Kit Depot. (formerly Adelaide Tools)
- Total Tool
What can I buy with the voucher and can I use it online?
It is recommended you purchase tools specific to your trade. If you already have these tools, then it may be worth asking your supervisor for a list of tools you will need later in your apprenticeship or when you complete your qualification.
You might also want to consider additional personal protective equipment, workwear, or other work equipment that are essential to your work.
If your nominated work equipment supplier offers an online ordering / voucher service, you can use this online. Please note your supplier may charge a delivery fee.
Can I change the supplier after I submit the application?
You will be supplied with one electronic voucher to your nominated supplier. Unfortunately, you can’t change suppliers after submitting your application. However, you don’t have to use the $500 in a single purchase – you can carry over your remaining credit and use it at another time.
I live in a regional area and don’t have access to the suppliers listed. What are my options?
You should be able to order everything you need online. If your chosen work equipment supplier does not offer this service or there isn’t a tool supplier near you, please contact CITB.
