Where do I start?
The Certificate IV is the place to start if you are a beginner or wanting to do the Diploma and have not yet completed the Certificate IV.
The Certificate IV core topics are indicated in the yellow hexagons. These topics must be completed along with two electives (indicated in the grey hexagons), for a total of nine subjects in order to complete the Certificate IV.
In order to complete the Diploma you must have completed the Certificate IV. Then you must complete the four Diploma core topics (blue hexagons) and five additional electives. You will need a mix of group A, B and C electives per the chart legend.
However, if you are not wanting to complete the Certificate IV or Diploma, students are very welcome to take courses individually as long as they meet the course prerequisites stipulated in the course outline or can provide RPL or the equivalent.
Our aim at the Centre for Creative photography is always to help our students get the most out of their studies and to get them where they want to be. We will work with you to create a learning path that will work best with your schedule and goals.
