Graduate
If you have a degree and are considering secondary teaching you can choose from these options to complete a secondary teaching qualification at a teacher education provider:
- Complete a one-year Graduate Diploma of Teaching (Secondary)
- Complete a two-year Bachelor of Teaching (Secondary)
Ensure your undergraduate degree includes two teaching subjects for secondary teaching. Otherwise you may have to do further study before completing a Graduate Diploma of Teaching.
