Recognition of Prior Learning
Applications for recognition of prior learning are assessed on an individual basis. A student may, under specific circumstances, receive a waiver for a basic unit. In this case the student must substitute an alternative unit selected from the advanced and optional unit listing once approved by the Head of Department.

The course is of two years full-time study. Students usually undertake the course on a part-time basis over a minimum period of four years. Students are required to undertake a minimum of two units per semester (equivalent to the part-time program), and remain enrolled in consecutive years until the course has been satisfactorily completed. Leave of absence may be granted by the Head of Department.
