Course options
We offer full-time (13-week) and part-time* (18-week) courses with a range of options so that you can study how and where it suits you. The 13-week and 18-week options cover the same course content, with the 18 week option giving you more time to complete tasks.
*Please note that for the purposes of StudyLink, the 18-week option is still considered to be fulltime study.
Online options
Study from anywhere in the world, all you need is a computer with a camera and a reliable internet connection.
All online options include 3 seminars with a face-to-face component conducted via compulsory Zoom meetings. Zoom meetings are between 30 minutes and 3 hours long and are scheduled in advance of the seminar by your instructor. The main focus of these meetings is to practice real-life transactions, including role playing and assessment scenarios.
Daytime Zoom meetings are held in business hours
Evening/weekend Zoom meetings are held on weekday evenings and during the day on Saturdays
Outside of Zoom meetings, and for all other seminars, the course consists of online course work that can be completed in your own time, within set deadlines for tasks and assessments.
At all times on the course you will be supported by an experienced instructor, who will stay by your side throughout the course, providing coaching, mentoring and support.
Online course options include:
13-week course with day time Zoom sessions
18-week course with day time Zoom sessions
18-week course with evening/weekend Zoom sessions
