Graduate Certificate in Academic Practice

The Graduate Certificate in Academic Practice offers applicants working as academic staff in a higher education institution (full-time, part-time or sessionally) the opportunity to gain a postgraduate qualification in academic practice, commencing in Session 1 each year.

The program is fully online and offers two core units and a choice of elective units. The first unit requires that you are concurrently teaching or employed in the facilitation of learning. The award is open to staff from all universities or higher education providers who meet the entry requirements.

SCU academic staff (Level A and Level B) are required to complete the Graduate Certificate in Academic Practice as part of their employment contract. This is free of charge to the academic staff member and each school also supports their staff by allowing 130 hours workload allocated for each unit of study.
