TAFE
Hi
I have a vague and possibly daft question however i will ask as i have been reading about the difficulty of getting uk quals recognised in Oz. i have just completed a Open University course in supporting childrens learning, which is NVQ level 4 equivilent am wondering on the validity of this in Australia. Does anyone know about this; i have searched for NVQ and found nothing (mind it could be me). i have also read about gaining quals at TAFE but seem unable to find out what this is (agian this could be me. !).
Whilst I am more than willing to volunteer in schools etc should i need to, i am wondering if anyone can shed any light on whether it is easier to find work if you have experience of working with younger children, thinking about pre-schools in particular, have just been offered the chance to work with 5/6 yr olds.
thank everyone,
Ceri

You need to contact the education department of the state.
Tell them what you have and they will let you know how to get your quals assessed and job prospecs.
For instance in VIC http://www.earlychildhoodvictoria.or...ed%20Questions
Google "overseas qualifications (state) early learning".

Hi Liam
www.sunshinecoast.tafe.gov.au
This is the local TAFE to Buderim - TAFE is just the same as a further education college in England and offer vocational courses. I have just started working at htis one - but am not sure about the whole range of courses. But they do recognise prior learning.
Good luck ( it s full of poms by the way)
