“I didn’t want to do a year of a general degree just to get my marks up. I loved being at Southbank Institute of Technology and learned great skills that now help me in my job and at uni. I found the job I wanted and my employer even offered to pay for me to study the Bachelor of I.T. at QUT where I went straight into second year”.

Jess Wightman, Diploma of Information Technology

Get where you want to go – now! Not everyone learns in the same way or at the same pace. At Southbank Institute of Technology there are as many options as there are individuals.

Practical talent for the workplaceShape a pathway that will take you from school or the workplace to getting the higher skills you need for future work or study. With a qualification from Southbank Institute you can:

■ go straight into a great job ■ go on to university ■ study a higher qualification at Southbank Institute of

Technology ■ keep your options open for later in your career.

Why choose us? ■ New buildings with state-of-the-art facilities ■ More than 114 different courses for you to choose from

developing practical talent and theoretical knowledge ■ Central location with public transport right to the door ■ Student accommodation close to the campus.

Pathways to universitySouthbank Institute of Technology has partnered with major Queensland universities to give diploma, advanced diploma and associate degree graduates recognition for the quality of education and training they receive at Southbank Institute. Students can:

■ enter into a university degree course after completing a diploma without reapplying through the Queensland Tertiary Admissions Centre (QTAC). This is called a dual award.


■ enrol in a triple award course that allows you to study concurrently at Southbank Institute and at a university

■ acquire multiple qualifications at diploma and degree levels. Through recognition of prior learning, this linking, or articulation, creates a seamless pathway to higher qualifications.

Didn’t get the OP you wanted?Not getting the right Overall Position (OP score) isn’t the end of university study. Completing any Southbank Institute of Technology diploma, advanced diploma or Certificate IV in Adult Tertiary Preperation may improve your OP score, heightening your chances of securing a place to university.

Southbank Institute of Technology is a recognised centre of excellence for its pathways to universities. Most Southbank Institute diplomas and advanced diplomas articulate into degree courses with our partner universities. In many cases these articulation arrangements are dual awards.

So what’s a dual award?At Southbank Institute of Technology, choose from over 50 diploma/degree combined courses - you complete the diploma at Southbank Institute then go to university to take up a place that has already been reserved for you. You don’t have to reapply through QTAC. In most cases you get at least a year’s academic credit towards your degree.

Credit transfer arrangement A university will grant credit towards a degree for the successful completion of a related diploma (e.g. Diploma of Information Technology going to a Bachelor of Information Technology). The credit is pre-determined or pre-negotiated on your behalf but entry into the degree is not guaranteed. You still have to apply through the Queensland Tertiary Admissions Centre or QTAC to gain entry into the degree, but once admitted to the degree you will be given the pre-determined credit on application. Often this credit is as much as one year of the degree**.

Performance Level Assessment (PLA)*** Many Southbank Institute diplomas and advanced diplomas have subjects (also called competencies) that have PLA as a supplementary reporting system.

PLA is an additional way of rating certain aspects of student achievement. If as a student you demonstrate an advanced level of performance, you will be awarded a Credit, and a Distinction is awarded for exceptional level of performance.

PLA has a number of advantages:

■ QTAC uses PLA results to improve a student’s Tertiary Entrance Ranking (OP equivalent)

■ If you are disappointed with your high school results, you have an opportunity to enhance your OP through PLA when studying a diploma or advanced diploma. You may be able to get a rank that is as good as OP 6 equivalent thereby opening up a wider range of university courses that were not initially available to you when you left school.

■ Evidence of additional effort and performance can also enhance your employment prospects.

* As at 21 December 2008. QUT and Griffith University give bonus ranking of up to five points for a Diploma completed at Southbank Institute. This is compentency based training and assumes competency will be achieved in every course (subject).

** The exact amount of credit varies depending on the specific details of each credit transfer arrangement.*** Please note, not all qualifications offered at Southbank Institute have competencies with PLA attached. Generally it is not the whole qualification with PLA but

rather some competencies within it.

credit points will be granted on students’ progression into the MTD. 13 Application for admission into the MEd must be made directly to QUT. Upon admission 10 credit points will be awarded towards the Masters.14 Application for admission into the MPRM must be made directly to USQ.
