Entry Requirements
AICSE student selection process has been developed to ensure that students are enrolled in a qualification that best suits their needs. These selection criteria consider a variety of factors when assessing a student’s suitability for undertaking the course. The following will be considered when deciding the suitability for enrolment:
- The student’s needs and desired outcomes as the student indicates in the Pre-Training Review (PTR);
- The ability and commitment of the student to completing the course;
- Eligibility requirements as outlined in the applicable National Training Package;
Student’s existing ability in the ACSF core skills (learning, reading, writing, oral communication and numeracy). The Language, Literacy and Numeracy assessment will be completed as part of the PTR process.
Students not meeting these requirements will be directed to more suitable qualifications. Offshore International students will be required to attend a Skype/Zoom or phone interview as part of the PTR process. This interview will also be used to conduct the oral component of the LLN test.
