Course description
About Learning Design
The Bachelor of Learning Design was developed for professionals who seek teaching qualifications, but not teacher registration. This program is most suited to those who are responsible for instructing or training others, and who want to increase their knowledge of educational practices.
Students are supported by industry-experienced educators – trained to mentor students. These programs are dedicated to the graduation of industry-ready and futures oriented educators.
Note: it is now a requirement of the Commission for Children and Young People that all university students and other volunteers in schools undergo a criminal history check. Therefore it will be necessary for all commencing students to apply for a ‘Suitability Blue Card’ through a nominated person at each campus. The ‘Suitability Blue Card’ remains current for two years.
