Graduate Certificate in Education
UNSW Sydney, Sydney, NSW, Australia
About this program
UNSW's Graduate Certificate in Education is built for qualified teachers and other education professionals who want to study education at an advanced level, offering specialisations in Educational Studies, Curriculum and Assessment, Educational Psychology, Gifted Education, Special Education and TESOL. Commonwealth Supported Places are available for local candidates, and the program suits teachers, trainers, coaches, adult educators, vocational educators and educational designers who want formal postgraduate credentials without necessarily needing a full master's degree. It's important to note this program doesn't provide professional accreditation to teach in NSW or Australian primary or secondary schools; students seeking that qualification should look at the Bachelor of Education (Secondary) or Master of Teaching programs instead. It suits education professionals who already have teaching or training experience and want a specific specialisation added to their existing expertise.
