查爾斯特大學(xué)

The Bachelor of Educational Studies from Charles Sturt University can help you get where you want to go – whether you're a teacher seeking accreditation in an additional teaching area or you want to move from primary to high school teaching – or vice versa. Alternatively, it could be a way to get into your first accredited teaching degree – whether you’re a school leaver who didn’t quite get their expected ATAR, are transitioning from TAFE/VET or are looking to upgrade previous university study.

While the Bachelor of Educational Studies is not a professional teaching qualification in itself, accredited teachers can qualify to teach another discipline.
