TAFE Open Learning
You can get a nationally recognised qualification without attending any classes when you study through TAFE Open Learning. All our courses are delivered off-campus, either via correspondence or online.
TAFE Open Learning provides many options to progress your study. Your previous education, training, work experience and life experiences may help you gain credit towards your course. Many courses also offer up to one year's credit towards a university degree.
