Course Details

Please note that face to face training sessions are not completed in a single day. In addition to the face to face training day/s, you will need to undertake independent study to complete your Assessment Tasks. You must then send your completed Assessment Tasks to your Trainer by a set date. Cut off dates for assessment varies – your Trainer will advise you of these during face to face training.

For all online training, we use a Learning Management System called ‘Moodle’. A full induction on how to use Moodle is available to all new students. Generally, it takes 4 to 5 weeks to undertake your study for each online unit.

Instructions for completing your enrolment formMainstream enrolments

Some Units are common to both Certificate IV and the Diploma. Choosing these may save you some work in completing the Diploma, should you wish to do so at a later date.

You are not required to select all of your units for the Cert IV or Diploma in one enrolment form (although you are welcome to do so if you want). You may decide to select units progressively over the course of your Cert IV or Diploma. However, when selecting your units please ensure to select the number of units that are manageable for you.

For example, if you are doing online training a maximum of 1-2 units per month is generally manageable. This equates to approximately 6-8 hours a week to complete your work. The same applies to face to face training – if you are doing face to face training a maximum of 1-2 units a month is generally achievable given that some assessment is done in class and the majority of assessments must be completed independently by you within 4 weeks of the session. As a general guide, allow 12 months to complete a Certificate IV and 18 months to 2 years to complete a Diploma. Of course, you are free to enrol in more Units if you believe you can complete your training in less time.

Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) & Credit Transfer

Please contact the Training Manager directly to apply for RPL: [email protected]

You may be eligible for Credit Transfers if you have completed accredited training with another Registered Training Organisation such as TAFE. Please provide certified copies of your transcripts at the time you submit your enrolment form. If there is a delay in providing the certified copy, please let us know.

If you are flying to Sydney for a Training session please don’t make any airline or accommodation booking until you have received your Training reminder email. We will try and get these out as early as possible.

The New Training Package

All students enrolled in the CHC40912 Certificate IV in Social Housing and CHC50812 Diploma of Social Housing will be transitioning into new qualifications. Qualification not completed will be delivered under the new qualification making this a seamless transition.
