Looking For A Short Course?
With a huge range of short courses from Australia's leading online providers, you will be sure to find a course that's perfect for you.

As Australia’s most easily recognisable city, Sydney attracts a vast number of students from around Australia and across the globe.

They come for the beautiful sights, the eclectic culture and, of course, the world-class standard of education. There is no end to the study opportunities, as Sydney is jam-packed with universities and institutes, including the University of Sydney (Australia’s oldest university) and Sydney Institute of Technology.

The University of Sydney has several campuses dotted around Sydney, including several medical school campuses, a music campus, and campuses devoted to specific fields, such as health sciences and business. There is more than enough room to study an array of courses in Sydney, such as veterinary science, rehabilitation counselling, languages, philosophy, business analysis, chemical and biomolecular engineering, and geoscience.

Certain courses can be used as pathways to some universities in Australia, for example, certificate IV in horticulture could take you to Charles Sturt University, a diploma in communication and media could take you to the University of Western Sydney, and a diploma in applied fashion design and technology could take you to the University of Technology Sydney.

Most of the universities, colleges and institutes in Sydney offer online and classroom-based courses. In some cases, certain aspects of certain courses aren’t suited to online learning. In these instances, hybrid courses, or blended learning, are the solution. They combine theoretical online learning with practical lessons, giving students the best of both worlds. While most courses and university degrees are strictly structured (set registration dates, start dates, exam dates, and closing dates), some courses offer more flexibility. Find out about courses in Sydney if you don’t like to be dictated to by someone else’s agenda.

Sydney attracts people from all over the world looking for better job opportunities, better education, and a better standard of living. And Sydney delivers. Sydney is Australia’s top-ranking global city, considered one of the highest in the world regarding its facilities and quality.

Let’s focus on what Sydney has to offer the hordes of domestic and international students who come flocking to its bright lights every year.

What Study Options are Available in Sydney?

Vocational education in New South Wales has several institutions liberally dotted around the city, so no matter where you are in the city, you’re never too far from an in-class vocational course.

The courses themselves are also extremely varied and cater to every need imaginable.  You could be an experienced professional looking to complete a degree course (or two), in which case you will be interested in the university articulation pathways.

From floristry to welding, from international financial management to freelance travel photography and writing, there is no end to the variety of vocational courses in Sydney.

Semester courses

Many semester courses from reputable NSW institutes are part of the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF), so you can be sure of their quality. They are also plenty of Nationally Recognised Training (NST) courses, so you can take your credits and your qualifications anywhere in Australia and know that they’ll count for something. In fact, because they are from Sydney’s reputable institutes, they will count for rather a lot.

Semester courses range from apprenticeships and traineeships to certificates and graduate diplomas.

Short courses

Short courses in Sydney are available for people who want to build their skills either professionally or recreationally. For example, you could take a French cooking course to master the art of patisserie, or, you could take a French cooking course so you can add French cuisine to the Spanish, Thai, and Chinese that your small catering business already offers.

Various levels of accreditation are available, including:

  • Accredited short courses that are nationally recognised and come with a Statement of Attainment.
  • Skill Sets that are nationally recognised unit of competency and also come with a Statement of Attainment.
  • Statement programs that meet specific training needs. They are not nationally recognised, but they are assessed. They only come with a Statement.
  • Certificates of Attendance are also designed to meet specific training needs. They are not assessed, and they are not nationally recognised, but they do come with a Certificate of Attendance.

Online courses

Online correspondence courses are available from many institutes. This means that students have the ability to undertake online learning from learning management systems, wikis and web video conferencing, which is all facilitated by the institution.

Sydney for Students

Sydney is a playground for students from all over the world. Not only are the entertainment options virtually endless, but public transport is widely available so that getting to the fun is not a problem. It’s not the cheapest city to live in, but it’s possible to live relatively comfortably if you keep an eye out for bargains and trawl the various food, arts, crafts and clothing markets for great deals. Sydney is one of the most famously multicultural cities in the world, so it’s a great place to experience new sights, sounds, people, and food. Of course, the standard of education is high. All-in-all, it’s difficult to think of any reasons not to come to Sydney to study.
