What short courses are available in Darwin?
Darwin, as the capital of the Northern Territory in Australia, offers a range of short courses, from training courses in First Aid to a Certificate IV in Aged Care. A short course can be a way to qualify for a job, or as a method for further study, if you’re looking to go on and complete a university degree or advanced diploma.
Generally, short courses are taught through TAFE or VET (Vocational Education and Training), and course content tends to focus around creating work-ready, practical skills. Australian short courses tend to be extremely high quality, and in Darwin are taught within organisations such as Charles Darwin University (CDU), the Australian Institute of Marine Science and other Registered Training Organisations (RTOs).
Just some of the areas you could study are:
- Hospitality, barista skills and tourism
- Community services, aged care and individual support
- Health care and nursing
- Project management
- Early childhood education and teaching
- Land management
How to study short courses in Darwin
There are several ways to study short courses in Darwin. If you’re from another city or state, (the Gold Coast, Alice Springs, even Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide or Brisbane) or just from outside central Darwin, online courses could be a brilliant option for you. Alternatively, if you’re within the Northern Territory, you could study part-time, limiting your travel significantly.
International students should enquire with CRICOS before enrolling in a course.
