What is the level of students studying in TAFE in Australia?

400 thousand can take care of TAFE The university is a little nervous, and it is possible to earn living expenses, but the tuition is very difficult. Think about it, the annual tuition fee is about 15000 Australian dollars, and you can work for up to 20 hours. How can I earn it?

To study in TAFE, you should be prepared to emigrate, because that diploma may not be recognized in China, so it is better to study there. My friend said that if you study that, you will be a worker all your life, but in Australia, everyone will be treated equally, as long as you don't think you have anything.

If you go to a university, you may see where it is. If you go to a remote place or a school that is not so good, the tuition may be low, but many people are unwilling to go. Tuition in a good school is very expensive, and you estimate that 400,000 yuan is not enough. You can save 380,000 yuan for two years as a graduate student, but you estimate that 400,000 yuan for three years is not enough. You can consult an intermediary, but don't believe it all. They are eager for you to be their client, so the intermediary is no better. But don't deny that they are more professional than us, just mind your own opinions and don't believe them all! If in doubt, please search online, don't rely on the intermediary, believe in yourself!

If you have decided to go, prepare for IELTS as soon as possible, which is a tough bone to chew! Don't miss the opening day of the semester in Australia, it will take half a year. The deposit should also be deposited six months before the visa is issued. Loan for studying abroad is ok, it's up to you.

TAFE is equivalent to junior college, or a little lower than our junior college level in China. Those who have studied this are all graduates from high schools, universities, or small universities, and feel that they are not as good as TAFE to TAFE. I had this idea! Hehe, but you usually go to TAFE after high school. Two years after graduation, you can still study for an undergraduate degree in a university that cooperates with TAFE, but you must study for another two years. But this TAFE can easily find jobs and immigrants, because TAFE provides very practical and scarce vocational courses. Note that it is a career-oriented course, such as chef and barber. You can also find a part-time job after class, just have friends around you and study this.

Here are some introductions about TAFE that I am looking for.

TAFE (full name: technology and continuing education) is a common form of vocational and technical education in Australia, which is popular in Australia, Europe and Southeast Asia. TAFE College established by Australian government is responsible for education and training. TAFE Higher Diploma is awarded by the Australian government, which is equivalent to the level of higher vocational education (junior college) in China.

TAFE is an important part of Australian higher education, and it is a huge education system jointly invested and managed by the federal and state governments. There are 750,000 college students in Australia, and the TAFE system students are about 6.5438+0.27 million, which is 654.38+0.7 times the number of college students in Australia. For Australia with a population of only18.7 million, this is a considerable number.

In terms of funds, the Australian federal government and local governments have invested heavily in TAFE. According to official statistics, the TAFE system has an annual budget of 3 billion Australian dollars, and the actual allocation is around 4 billion Australian dollars.

TAFE, the choice of studying abroad with freedom of advance and retreat

Advantages of TAFE

TAFE can provide thousands of vocational and non-vocational courses every year, most of which are designed according to the needs of social, economic and commercial life development and are very practical. TAFE courses are designed not only by educational decision-making units, but also by industrial and commercial circles, so its courses can provide students with the knowledge and skills they have learned in future employment. For students from three schools in China, on the basis of their original majors, choose a TAFE course related to them. After completing the course, they can get a TAFE diploma and show their talents directly in every industry. This is a big advantage of TAFE.

Secondly, TAFE adopts small class system, students can get more help from teachers, and the school facilities are quite perfect and modern. The educational system of TAFE is generally one to two years, and more attention is paid to group learning and discussion in teaching. Most teachers are experienced professionals, with an average of 15 to 30 students per class. The teaching content is the combination of practical work and classroom teaching, and some courses are taught in universities. For students from three universities with relatively weak foundations, it is more reasonable to choose TAFE than to go to university directly. Moreover, most TAFE courses allow students to continue to pursue university courses after graduation, and the subjects they have studied can even be counted as undergraduate courses for one year or more. This provides a two-way choice for students from three schools in China.

TAFE diplomas in Australia are widely recognized by various industries, employers and universities. For example, two international students, one graduated from a university and the other from TAFE College, are more inclined to the latter in the face of the same position, because TAFE graduates receive vocational education that applies what they have learned, while the advantage of undergraduate courses lies in theory, which requires a certain amount of training to adapt to work. If students want to continue their studies after working for a period of time, the advantages of TAFE course will be further reflected. They can go to the corresponding TAFE university college, continue to complete the course for one and a half to two years, and get an undergraduate degree. Of course, the admission condition is that you must obtain an advanced diploma in TAFE course.

As far as the admission requirements of TAFE are concerned, domestic graduates from technical secondary schools, technical schools and vocational schools can directly enter TAFE courses as long as the IELTS total score is 5.5. If your English score is not satisfactory, you can still study English in TAFE's language center and then study mainstream courses. IELTS requires a total score of 6.0 to apply for an Australian undergraduate course.

Combined with the educational characteristics and system in China, students who failed in the college entrance examination and working people who want to continue their studies for several years can choose TAFE. Judging from the development direction of overseas students after studying abroad, compared with other educational levels in Australia, TAFE, which is widely distributed, flexible in mechanism, practical and diverse, and convenient for employment, will become a popular new choice in the future study abroad trend in Australia.

TAFE Education Rubik's Cube has advanced and retreated.

TAFE schools have flexible requirements for admission, adopt a credit system in the academic system, and issue corresponding graduation certificates, qualification certificates or diplomas according to the accumulated credits; Short-term training will issue a learning certificate. The poor level is just like middle schools, junior colleges and undergraduate courses in China. TAFE generally does not award degrees. To get a degree, you must enter a college of higher education or a comprehensive university for further study. The credit system allows intermittent learning, which means that adults have more choices when dealing with the family burden and the contradiction between work and study. Under this academic system, the duration of courses varies from 12 weeks, 24 weeks to one year and two years.

This unified certificate system and modular curriculum content structure make vocational education connected with general education and higher education; Linking pre-service education with post-service education embodies the idea of lifelong education. In the stage of ordinary senior high school education, students can freely choose the vocational education courses required by the first-class certificate to the fourth-class certificate; After graduating from high school and entering TAFE College, the vocational education course credits obtained in the high school education stage are recognized, that is, you can learn the subsequent course modules directly without having to start from scratch. After graduating from TAFE College, students can also enter the university, and all (if the major of the university is practical) or part (if the major of the university is theoretical) of the courses they have studied in TAFE College are recognized. This creates conditions for TAFE university graduates to continue their studies and obtain university degrees.

TAFE's flexible educational rules are like a Rubik's cube, which can correspond to a road from another angle, so that foreign students can make progress and retreat and make choices when they move from one learning stage to another. You can choose to go to college, or you can choose to work, and you can continue to study in college after work. Moreover, the tuition fee of TAFE school is only 2/3 of the undergraduate tuition fee, which is very economical.

Interpreting the Relationship among TAFE, Immigrants and MODL

For students who have no work experience, whether they can get immigration opportunities after studying in Australia is a very important factor. When you graduated, was your major (occupation) on the list of occupations in short supply (MODL) published by the Australian Immigration Department? According to the current immigration regulations, to apply for Australian ordinary skilled immigrants, the score should reach 120. As long as your occupation is on this list, you can get extra points of 15-20, so your immigration score has a good chance of reaching this standard.

TRA Assessment-Vocational Certification for Skilled Migrants

Vocational and technical evaluation of skilled workers is a key link in the whole immigration application. Trades Recognition Australia(TRA) is an institution designated by the Australian Immigration Department, and the relevant rules for the professional evaluation of technicians are formulated by TRA.

As there are more than 140 types of skilled workers in Australia's vocational skills list, TRA can't set an independent evaluation standard for each specific type of skilled workers. Therefore, in July 2005, TRA promulgated and implemented the Unified Evaluation Standard for Skilled Workers, and all applicants applying for evaluation in TRA will take this standard as the basis.

In the unified standard of technician evaluation, TRA has set five paths for technician evaluation, namely, A, B, C, D and E. Applicants can pass the vocational and technical evaluation as long as they prove that they meet any of the path conditions. These five paths are: path A- formal apprenticeship, path B- informal apprenticeship, path C- vocational apprenticeship, path D- work experience, and path E- Australian vocational certificate holder (Australian qualification). Applicants must meet certain conditions to prove that they meet one of the evaluation paths. Obviously, graduates of TAFE University should usually be evaluated according to E-path.

Not long ago, the requirement of "900-hour working experience" for technicians was issued, which had a great impact on the groups planning to emigrate as technicians, especially the China students studying in Australian Vocational and Technical College. However, Australian universities have made arrangements for this, so that students can gain corresponding work experience through internships during their studies to meet the needs of career evaluation.

In Australia's skilled migration system, the vast majority of skilled jobs are in skills list occupations, and many of them are placed in the list of occupations that are in short supply. Theoretically, skilled workers can become the main force of skilled immigrants by virtue of this advantage, but it is far from the truth. On the one hand, many technicians in Chinese mainland lack sufficient understanding of Australian skilled immigrants; On the other hand, skilled workers who are interested in immigration balk at the complicated Australian vocational and technical evaluation rules and stand by. I hope that after reading this column, you can establish the concept of skilled immigrants by studying in TAFE.

I hope it helps you.
