Before enrolling, your proficiency in language, literacy, numeracy and digital literacy will be assessed to determine what level of support you may need to assist you through your study program.
Students will need to have access to a computer, the internet and Microsoft office or similar software. Online students will be required to download the free Microsoft Teams App.
Both formal and informal skills, knowledge and experience may be recognised as prior learning and could help you avoid training in areas you are already competent.
