Courses in New South Wales

New South Wales (NSW) is the most populated state in Australia, so it’s fitting that it has the most education institutes and campuses in the country. Students from all over Australia, and the world flock to NSW to take advantage of the range of quality courses available.

Students don’t, however, actually have to be in New South Wales to take a course, as many of institutes have online courses geared towards people who can’t physically attend classes.

What study options are available to me in New South Wales?

You have plenty of options if you want to take a course in New South Wales. In addition to the certificate, diploma, and advanced diploma courses, there are also degree level qualification, short courses, apprenticeships and traineeships, and TVET courses for secondary school students. Classroom-based courses are offered on a semester basis, but you can register for online courses at any time during the year.

Courses On Offer

You’re spoilt for choice when it comes to registering for semester courses. Many courses available in institutes within New South Wales comply with the requirements of the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF), and provide a high-level of quality when it comes to your education. The vocational training programs are also Nationally Recognised Training (NRT) certified.

Essentially, it doesn’t matter whether you complete a Statement of Attainment, Certificate, Diploma, Advanced Diploma, or Graduate Certificate/Diploma, your qualification will be recognised everywhere in the country. Furthermore, the qualifications gained can be used as credits towards your next level of education.

The range of courses is also diverse enough for students to enter any industry they choose, including:

  • Agriculture and Mining
  • Arts and Media
  • Business
  • Construction
  • Beauty
  • Healthcare
  • IT
  • Communication
  • Engineering
  • Sport and Recreation
  • Tourism and Hospitality

Short courses

People choose to take short courses for a number of reasons. They could, for instance, want to improve their photography skills so that they can wow their friends at their amateur photography club. Or, they may want to turn their hobby into a career. Or, they may need to take a certain number of short courses per year as part of their continued professional development.

As with semester and online courses in NSW, there are different levels of qualifications, from the nationally recognised and accredited short courses that result in a Statement of Attainment to the Certificates on Attendance that are not nationally recognised. the course you choose to take part in all depends on what you’re planning on using it for.

Short courses are also available in a number of different fields, including:

  • Accounting
  • Business and management
  • Engineering
  • Graphic design
  • IT
  • Law
  • Mathematical sciences
  • Nursing
  • Public health
  • Teacher education
  • Veterinary studies

Short courses can take anything from half a day to three months to complete.

Online courses

Correspondence courses in NSW are provided by several institutions. Correspondence courses refer to the method of study, which is online or through electronic correspondence with the provider. They are a great way to gain a quality education while balancing it around a busy schedule or other commitments which may take up some of your time. No matter what area you’re looking to study in, there’s plenty on offer, from developing writing skills, learning the basics of WordPress and Photoshop to real estate and food handling.

New South Wales for students

New South Wales is one of the most student-friendly regions in the world. Not only does it have superior quality higher education, but it also has a wealth of culture and an abundance of natural beauty for students to enjoy. And then there’s the entertainment. It’s hard to beat Sydney, the vibrant capital city of NSW, for entertainment, from the ever-so-posh opera to the clubs that come alive at night.

Public transport is not a problem and the healthcare system is top-notch.

The climate is heavenly, so expect to spend a lot of time in the great outdoors, sunning yourself on the beach, hiking up mountains and exploring forests.

The cost of living is reasonable, depending on where you live. The major cities, especially Sydney, can be a bit on the expensive side, but shared accommodation, public transport and cheap shopping at a variety of markets will help bring down your expenses.
