Graduate Certificate in Education

This course is designed to provide educators and allied professionals (e.g., youth ministers, chaplains, family/parish educators, counsellors, probation officers) working in educational contexts with opportunities to develop advanced knowledge, understanding and expert skills in domains of their professional interests, responsibilities or concerns. The course does not lead to a teaching qualification. The 40 cp course can be taken as a general course comprised of units that are relevant to the graduate’s learning goals or as a specialised course consisting of units that focus on a particular domain (e.g., Mathematics or Safeguarding Children and Young People). A Graduate Certificate in Education, which is nested within the Master of Education, comprises 40 credit points towards a Master of Education should a graduate decide to pursue additional postgraduate studies.
