This tertiary teaching qualification is an ideal next step in your professional development if you are working in a teaching and learning role in the tertiary sector.
It provides a collegial, cross-disciplinary space for you to explore higher education learning and teaching, and equips you to undertake leadership or further study in higher education.
It consists of two 30-point compulsory courses to be taken part-time over two semesters. These courses are taught and assessed through a blended learning model using a combination of face-to-face (and streamed) seminars and online resources and assessments.
This programme can qualify you for more advanced responsibilities or lead to a masters degree.

In the case of the Postgraduate Certificate in Higher Education and Master of Higher Education, they can claim up to 30 points per semester.
