Why tertiary study is a good idea
Whatever your child sees themselves doing in the future, further education may be their best way to get there.
If your child does not intend to apply for a tertiary course, here are a few reasons why they might want to reconsider:
- a course can help bridge the gap between school studies and their dream career by giving them the right set of skills
- having a qualification might assist them in finding work more easily and earning a higher salary
- some research suggests that university graduates are likely to earn $1million more over their lifetime.
Tertiary study doesn't just have to mean taking a traditional bachelor degree. They may also wish to consider studying a certificate or diploma course through our TAFE division, Victoria Polytechnic.
If your child is uncertain of their end goal, our flexible study options and pathways can facilitate easy transition between our courses at different levels.
