As a new resident or citizen of Australia, finding a job may seem difficult. Your overseas qualification may not be recognised in Australia or you may need to undertake further study to gain recognition of your course. Maybe you are looking for a fresh start in your career? Child care courses are perfect for new residents or citizens who are looking for a career path with big opportunities.
Here are just a few reasons why child care could be the perfect career path for you as a new Australian.
Short course length – get started sooner
The short course duration is a very attractive aspect of studying a child care course. At Practical Outcomes, we offer courses that go for as little as 11 months.
You can complete our Certificate III in Early Childhood Education (CHC30113) in less than one year. This short course duration means that you will be ready to hit to workforce in no time!
Experience through training
One of the main reasons why child care courses are ideal for new citizens or residents is because they offer you experience through your training.
An element of your study will involve you undertaking a practical placement at a child care centre. In many cases, these practical placements lead to permanent work. This also means that you will already have practical experience in a child care centre when you do complete your qualification, making you a better candidate for employment.
Flexible learning
Another major plus of undertaking study in child care at Practical Outcomes is the fact that you can do your course on campus or in the virtual campus.
The virtual campus option allows you study on your own time. For example if you are already employed full time, then you can complete the course after working hours.
Meaningful, rewarding work
A career in child care offers you challenges and is also a very rewarding and meaningful area to work in. You will be changing hundreds, even thousands of children’s lives for the better and will be helping them take their very first steps in education.
If you want support in finding a career now that you’re able to work in Australia, contact Practical Outcomes to get you on track.
