Ok so have just had ds4 and have being thinking about a career change for some time now. I want to be a primary school teacher and if I study part it will take around 8 years to complete. I plan to complete a cert III in the next two years so I can at least start working in the industry. My question is how do you do it? Keep motivated and raise a family?? I don't want to start something I can finish!!
Also does anyone know if I can change to full time further down the track??
My sister is doing bachelor of primary education through Curtin university- online.
I believe you can study at your own pace per study period, but you have 10 years to get through the degree.
As I understand it, you can pick subjects for your study period- pick only one subject, if you're not coping.
Alternatively you can skip a study period- if you have a lot on at home.
The only requirement is that you finish in 10 years.
Seems fairly flexible.
Motivation can be a problem. I work full time and have 2 kids. I am really struggling to complete my second Diploma. Finished the first one with no problems. I only have one unit to finish and it is taking forever. I miss just having time to relax.
And yes, you can change from part-time to full-time during uni studies, you need to talk to Student Services.
