Please note: Under current Federal Government rules, undergraduate certificates cannot be issued by any Higher Education provider after 30 June 2025. This means if you are still studying an undergraduate certificate after this date, we may not be able to award you with the qualification regardless of if you have met all the course requirements. You can still enrol in this course but must either:·

  • Complete your studies and have your award conferred by the cut-off date
    OR
  • Use the units you have completed to gain credit and entry into our Associate Degree in Applied Health Science (Dermal Therapy)

The status of undergraduate certificates is currently under review and we expect to receive further advice soon. If the date is extended, this information will be updated.
