It takes a special type of person to thrive in this learning-oriented industry, as you’ll need to work with a wide range of age groups, possess an endless supply of patience and be a master in the art of communication. A career in education certainly isn’t easy, but few professions are more important; after all, education jobs are all about inspiring students to reach their full potential and supporting their efforts every step of the way.
Working in education can include; early childhood education, primary school teaching, secondary education and special needs coaching and teaching English to speakers of other languages (TESOL). You’ll find far more than just teaching jobs on offer as well, with some of the many education jobs available including support worker, teaching assistant, and playgroup supervisor.
Regardless of the role you choose, a career in education comes with plenty of responsibility, which means that the right skills and qualifications are not only important, they’re often mandatory. TAFE makes getting the education you need easy by connecting you with a broad range of nationally recognised education courses, including both in-class and online study options.
Whether you’re brand new to the industry or have years of experience and looking to upgrade your skills, we promote a vast selection of quality programs taught by experienced and knowledgeable professionals. Courses vary in length considerably- often from a few months to several years- and cover a wide spectrum of topics, so you’re sure to find a program that suits your needs and schedule.
A Certificate III and IV qualification are a great choice for those interested in roles as a childcare worker, teaching assistant or even a Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) educator. A Certificate III in Education Support is a popular choice at this qualification level and provides all the information and training needed to develop a successful and rewarding career as a support in a classroom. Skills in the planning of educational resources, literacy and numeracy development as well as health and safety practices are all covered in detail. Certificate education courses usually take between 18-24 months to complete, and through practical placements and learning from indusry professionals, you’ll complete the course with the confidence to start in the workforce.
Diploma level programs are designed to provide specialised skills and knowledge and are therefore perfect for students who know where they want to go with their career and want to sharpen their focus right now. A Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care is a fantastic course to get you started in this higher level qualification; providing the training needed to start developing, implementing and assessing the learning of young children. These comprehensive education courses follow the learning framework required by the National Quality Standard and can take 2-4 years to complete. These courses will also benefit professionals in the field who are looking to expand their skill set into unfamiliar territory.
One of the most widely respected qualifications in the industry is the Bachelor level credential. Whether you take a Bachelor of Education (Early Childhood or Primary) or a Bachelor of Adult Learning and Development, you’ll graduate equipped with everything you need to know for a successful career.  These qualifications are very highly- regarded by employers, and are recognised for their in- depth quality training of students. These can take up to four years to complete but are a worthwhile investment if you want to gain an education that’s very comprehensive and covers everything from developing learning plans, implementing them and assessing results. Completing a bachelor level program will also make you eligible for postgraduate courses, such as a Master’s in Education.
Australia is currently amid a huge teacher shortage and the student population is expected to grow massively in upcoming years. This significant increase makes a career in education a fantastic choice for those looking for long-term job security.
The world has changed considerably in recent years and nowhere has this been more evident than in the education industry. With even greater changes expected in the years to come, it will be those who invest in continual learning who will succeed most in this vibrant and innovative sector.
