Distance education mode now available

Access to the Graduate Certificate in Road Safety and Graduate Diploma in Road Safety is now more flexible through the availability of select units in distance education and block mode.

Currently two units are delivered in block mode (generally in November each year): Road Safety Audit and Road Safety Evaluation Models.

Can international students enrol in distance education units?
At this stage, the distance education units are only be available to students within Australia. However, approval is being sought to make them available to international students from 2008.

How are the materials formatted and delivered?
Each distance education unit is packaged on CDs for distribution and will be delivered prior to the commencement of semester.

What if I need study assistance?
Mentoring support will be available for distance education students via email and telephone.
