Why take a pathway?

A pathway turns your vocational study into a head start on a degree.

  1. Plan ahead. Map out your study and career path from the start.
  2. Another way in. Get into higher education based on your prior learning, not only school results.
  3. An easier step up. More support as you move between academic levels, cultures and technologies.
  4. Build confidence. Develop academic skills gradually, and keep learning for life.
  5. Save time and money. Credit cuts the overall cost and length of your degree.
  6. Use what you know. Put your vocational knowledge and skills to work in your degree.
  7. More qualifications, sooner. Hold several qualifications in less time, which helps with jobs, promotion and pay.
