Course Description
Qualifications you deserve + rewarding growth + valuable connections
Been involved in worship ministry for over 5 years? Make all of that hard work count and set yourself up for an even more fruitful future. This is the last chance anyone will have to do the Diploma of Music Industry as an RPL Intensive, as the award is shifting from VET to Higher Education in 2021.
Upon approved application, an RPL Evidence Checklist will be sent to you. Gather the required evidence and submit it prior to the intensive week.
The intensive is delivered at AC Sydney Campus. Flights and accommodation are provided for interstate or regional students (subject to terms and conditions). Alongside the RPL evidence submitted, several assessments will be done during the intensive which will complete the course. 16 units make up the Diploma of Music Industry, and electives are predetermined for this version of the award.
Course Structure
This course comprises 16 units of competency to be completed:
- 4 Core units
- 12 Elective units (predetermined)
To be awarded the Diploma of Music Industry, students must show competency in 4 core and 12 elective units.
