Choosing the Right Tertiary Pathways

Choosing the most appropriate tertiary or training course can be difficult without professional guidance.

My criteria for recommending specific tertiary and training pathways for each individual with whom I work includes:

1. My knowledge of the unique value proposition offered by each program i.e. how the program content fits an individual's specific vocational requirements.

2. How well a pathway meets the needs of each individual in terms of elements like: mode of delivery preferences, fees, Government funding supported programs, HECS and Student Loan details, completion time, ability of any given program to provide a good range of employment outcomes with a singular qualification, annual Graduate Outcomes Survey results for tertiary programs, etc.

3. The individual's likelihood of admission to appropriate programs, based on their academic qualifications and relevant work experience.

4. Where applicable, advising individuals about the possibility of RPL's, credit transfers and the need to meet any prescribed graduate entry provisions.

5. Recommendations that include university and further education and training pathway options that are fit for purpose. For example, university programs are not 'better than' TAFE programs. Each offer good options with TAFE often providing faster, lower cost/subsidised pathways, with appropriate professional recognition in the workplace.

6. Use of my constantly updated database of thousands of tertiary education, training, career development and transition programs offered across all Australia's States and Territories.

7. A very clear understanding that my primary role as a career counsellor, is to ensure that each person with whom I work enjoys an uplifting and stepwise transition into a personally enriching vocation.
