  • The program is one year in duration and is delivered at college. This is a full-time course with 13 hours tuition per week, however you will also need to make additional time available outside of classes for research and assignment work.
  • Teaching will take the form of lectures, discussions, group work and self-directed learning.
  • Although the program is intensive, it is structured in a way that recognises the pressures on mature learners. Many students successfully balance the programs with work, family, and childcare commitments.
