Entry requirements
Domestic Students
- There are no mandated entry requirements.
- Must be over 18 years of age.
- At the time of enrolment prospective students are made aware of the fact that a reasonable level of reading, writing and comprehension of the English language is required, due to the high volume of documents required to be processed as part of the course. In most cases, LLN support can be provided. Where only a low level of support is needed, the program manager may arrange for the student to receive extra-curricular assistance from the trainer or other staff member.
- Where an applicant’s LLN deficiency will clearly inhibit achievement of learning outcomes and the applicant refuses LLN support, enrolment may be declined.
