Enrolment Process

Apply Today Transform Tomorrow

Start your journey toward a career that truly matters. Our simple five-step process guides you from eligibility to final offer, so you can quickly join a community of educators making a real impact.

1.

Check Your Eligibility

Check if you meet the requirements for our Postgraduate Diploma in Teaching.

3.

Next Steps

We will contact you to discuss the next steps, learn more about you, and let you know if we need any further information. This is also an opportunity for you to ask any questions you may have.

5.

Outcome

Successful: You’ll receive a conditional offer, including details about your enrolment.
Not Yet Ready: We’ll advise if you might qualify in the future and what steps to take. Sometimes, if you’re a strong candidate for another partner school, we’ll organize a second interview.

2.

Apply and Provide Documents

If you’re eligible, fill out our application form and upload the required documents (e.g., certified ID, transcripts). You can still submit your application before you have all documents ready, as some might take time to obtain.

*Police Vetting: Can take up to four weeks, so apply early to avoid delays.

4.

Interview and Assessment

Partner School Referral: If a partner school referred you, they’ll arrange your interview.
No Referral: We’ll help find a “home” school that suits you, and they’ll schedule your interview.
Literacy & Numeracy Test: All trainees must sit and pass this at our Epsom campus (a Teaching Council requirement).

*The assessments, tutorials and interviews will be held regularly and you will receive booking links after you've submitted your application. 

We look forward to welcoming you to The Teachers’ Institute!
