Pathways into teaching - Career changer

Teaching is a career brimming with opportunity and reward, and with recent investment in the industry, there has never been a better time to become a teacher.

There are a range of pathways to teaching, depending on your individual situation.

If you already have an undergraduate degree, you can apply for a postgraduate teaching degree, often called a 'Masters'.

Another option is to apply for a postgraduate degree that includes paid work in a secondary school while you study.

If you are looking to change your career but don't have an undergraduate degree, you may be able to enrol based on your professional experience, or you may apply for entry into a pathway program.

Pathway programs help you develop the knowledge and skills required for entry. Once you complete a pathway program, you can then enter a teaching degree.
