One of the Abbott government's top advisers on vocational education and training has stepped aside following allegations the company he runs employed salespeople who lured vulnerable students into courses with free laptops.

On Thursday the ABC's 7.30 program reported that Careers Australia, one of the country's biggest private training providers, had been accused of using door-to-door salespeople to target disadvantaged areas and enrol students with fake entrance exams.

Careers Australia billed taxpayers for almost $110 million in VET FEE-HELP loans in the past financial year.

Patrick McKendry, the chief executive of Careers Australia, has served as deputy chair of the government's Vocational Education and Training Advisory Board, since last August.
