REPORT SAMPLE

HIGHER EDUCATION SYSTEM IN AUSTRALIA

Postsecondary, or higher education in Australia starts after a student

clears the Year 12 of secondary education. Higher education, like the

school education, is governed by the Department of Education — which

prepares the national policies and programs, and provide funding to

government higher education institutions.

All the higher education institutions in Australia, are required to abide by

a regulated framework and issue standardized qualifications, prescribed

by the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF). The qualifications are

enforced by a regulating agency — Tertiary Education Quality and

Standards Agency (TEQSA).

AQF qualifications in Australia are ranked from level 1 to 10, based on the

technicality and amount of knowledge imparted. Level 1 to 4 comprises of

certificate programs I to IV, which cater to vocational education. While

certificate I and II programs basic technical skills for undertaking routine

works, certificate III and IV are designed for complex works.

They are followed by Level 5 diplomas and advanced diplomas — which

can both be normal higher education, as well as vocational education.

Level 6 to 10 are classified as higher education, and comprise of associate

to doctoral degrees in higher education.




After passing Year 12 of secondary education, a student going for

vocational education and training starts at certificate programs, while a

student going for general higher education enrolls for a Bachelor’s degree.

The certificate programs are of different duration and have specific credits.

The diploma courses are of one year, while the associate degree courses

are of two years. A general Bachelor’s degree is of three years, the

professional one requires four years of full–time study. A Masters’ degree

is of one to two years, followed by a Doctoral degree of three to five years.

There are 37 public universities, four private universities, and

approximately 87 non–university higher education providers (NUHEP),

most of them being private entities. All the higher education providers are

governed by the Tertiary Education Quality and Standards Agency (TEQSA).

It assesses and supervises higher education providers based on rules

contained in the ‘Higher Education Standards Framework’.

Though the universities have statutes that are laws of their home state,

but their licenses and standards to operate as universities are governed by

TEQSA, falling under the commonwealth.
