Accommodation needs will be considered only under specific conditions. The bursary will not be automatically renewed for following year; it will depend on the progress of each candidate according to standards of satisfaction. If a candidate should have to repeat a year of study, they will do so at their own cost and may apply to have their bursary reinstated the following year if progress is satisfactory. Payment of bursary will be done to the institute of higher learning directly by the CETA Administrator.

If a candidate after completion of their study takes work with a company other than provided by CETA as an Adoptive Company, candidates will be required to pay back to CETA all costs of the bursary plus interest, as determined by CETA.
If after completion of studies CETA or any of their Adoptive Companies cannot provide the candidate with work in an 18 months period, candidates will be released of any further obligation towards the bursary.
