Study Mode Definitions
- Online: Online courses provide the flexibility to study without normally requiring a student to visit a campus. Course content is studied through a number of means including the use of online discussion forums, electronic library resources, by contacting lecturers and teachers, and receiving study materials online/electronically. Work integrated learning, including placements, may be included in some courses.
- On-campus: Students studying in on-campus mode typically are expected to attend and participate in regular, structured on-campus teaching and learning activities throughout the University’s academic term. These activities may include lectures, tutorials, workshops and practice, online or other activities and normally will be timetabled at a CQUniversity campus or approved delivery site.
- Mixed Mode: Students studying in mixed mode will participate in a combination of online learning activities in addition to site-specific learning activities, which may include residential schools, co-op placements and/or work-integrated learning as a compulsory requirement of a unit. The additional site-specific learning activities are what differentiates a mixed-mode unit from an online unit.
*All study modes may include Vocational placement and/or work integrated learning.

Standard Course Structure
This program is typically delivered over a 48 week period, however as it is competency based it may be possible for learners to complete their training sooner if they have reached the required skill level. To complete the Certificate II in Skills for Education, Training and Employment Pathways, the learner must complete eleven units - 9 Core and 2 electives. Duration is consistent with the Volume of Learning identified in the AQF Qualification Type Descriptor for a Certificate II which is typically 0.5 - 1 years (600 – 1200 hours).
