What will I learn?

The Postgraduate Certificate in Education is a flexible, short programme of two 30-point courses in an area of education. This programme provides a pathway to further postgraduate study in the Master of Education. This is not an initial teacher education programme and will not lead to registration with the Teaching Council of New Zealand. Our widely regarded education programmes focus on academic knowledge and provide you with invaluable practical experience in teaching and education, through work placements in schools or education-related organisations.
