Accelerate your studies with a UNSW School of Education Credit Eligible Unit in Gifted Education
Having completed the Mini-COGE with GERRIC at UNSW School of Education, you have enhanced your knowledge and understanding of best practices in the education of gifted students.
Now, with our credit eligible courses, you can take this knowledge further and fast-track the completion of a postgraduate qualification, while also obtaining proficient teacher accreditation and valuable professional development.
Successful completion of the credit eligible Unit in Gifted Education: Key Concepts and Issues, in combination with the Mini-COGE, can earn you 6 Units of Credit (UoC) (equivalent to EDST5808) towards the School of Education's Master of Education (Gifted Education) or Graduate Certificate (Gifted Education) postgraduate programs at UNSW*.
Please also note that completing the credit eligible Unit (or EDST5808) is a prerequisite for enrolling in EDST5803 | Developing Effective Programs for Gifted Students and EDST5810 | Twice-Exceptionality in Education when completing a Master of Education (Gifted Education) or Graduate Certificate (Gifted Education).
