Graduate Diploma in Adult Education and Training / Vocational Education and Training / Higher Education

Overview

The Adult Education and Training postgraduate specialisation has been intensively reviewed in 2004. The 2005 program has been developed to respond to an emerging market in adult, vocational training and higher education and the need to respond to initiatives in education and training around online learning and flexible delivery.

The program will seek to capitalise on an environment of innovation and change in:

  • Higher education
  • TAFE and VET in Schools programs
  • Health and Community Services
  • Military, Police and Security Services
  • Corrective services

The courses will provide opportunity for students, who are most often mid-career professionals, to develop work-based projects to sustain innovation and change in their own organizations in their post graduate courses.

The program will incorporate a learning framework and a modular structure that provides opportunities for:

  • Flexible entry and exit
  • Customisation
  • Multiple client groups to access the course in fee paying market

The program will be offered in online mode and will have options for total online and mixed mode delivery depending on student and client needs

Continuing students in the GDipAdultEd program should consult with Dr Peter Kell to discuss transition arrangements.
