hi my name is safaa
I'm 17 years old, I'm beginning my traineeship cert 3 in early childhood education full-time next week, goes for a year. after that I'm wanting to do traineeship diploma same ECE, (i don't know how long that goes so if you can give me an answer to that too) and hopefully when i finish the diploma, i want to do a bachelor in ECE of course i have to do it in uni, just wanting to know, me having the qualification of cert 3 and diploma of ECE could that take me straight to uni to do an bachelor of ECE. and me having an cert 3 and diploma does that give me 50 50 on doing the bachelor degree for 2 years, i think it goes for 4 years. but an childcare centre told me that me doing cert3 and diploma gives me 50 50 to do the bachelor for 2 years just want to know if thats right.
bachelor degree
Re: bachelor degree
Hi Safaa,
There are a variety of different ECT courses available at different unis, so it depends on the course (and whether you wish to do a combined degree like EC/Primary). In most circumstances, your diploma does count towards course credit. I am at UNE doing Bachelor of Education (Early Childhood Teaching) and my diploma took 2 years off my course, leaving me with 2 years of the university study. So to answer your query, yes, in my case, my diploma 'halved' my course
