Description

This course is unique in its ‘practice-first’ approach, and in the depth of learning about the higher education context. You will collaborate and innovate with a group of likeminded peers through the online learning environment, and through innovative folio and project-based assessment tasks. This is not an accredited Australian Initial Teacher Education course and therefore does not qualify the student to teach in Australia. Tailor your study to your lifestyle thanks to our innovative digital learning system, accessible from anywhere with 24/7 personalised support. Participate in live classes, connecting with specialist lecturers and fellow students. When studying online, you’ll complete the same set of self-paced study modules as on-campus students, and graduate with the same qualification. Best of all, you get access to view live content on demand.

Course duration: Full-time: 5 months Part-time: 11 months Accelerated: 3 months
