Training is delivered in stages which correspond to AQF Levels II, IV, V, and VI. The prefer pathway is for students to complete the various lower level qualifications which culminate in the higher qualification; i.e. Certificate IV before commencing the Diploma. Students who follow this pathway therefore achieve more than one qualification.

Applicants without the previous level qualifications will be considered if they have relevant qualifications and/or vocational experience.

We aim to equip our graduates with the necessary skills and knowledge to enable them to successfully satisfy the demands of the workplace.
