The minimum entry requirement for this program is an AQF level 7 bachelor’s degree in any discipline. Undergraduate degrees from a health science and/or teaching background are generally an advantage.
In order to comply with organisational requirements students will need to have an NDIS Workers Screening Check, which in most states includes a Working With Children Check (WWCC), criminal history check and abide by the immunisation and safety protocols from the relevant health authorities for students in training. Requirements will be outlined specially to students when placements are secured for that student. The cost associated with this work experience will be met by the student.
You will complete a supervised Work Integrated Learning (WIL) placement in an agency providing O&M services. Students must complete the WIL placement in either Australia or Singapore as pre-approved by the UNSW School of Optometry and Vision Science. Students will be required to self-arrange an appropriate visa suitable to complete the face-to-face WIL component in either Australia or Singapore. As the coursework component of this program is delivered through distance online education, international student visas are not available through the program. Admission into this program is a competitive process and there are limited WIL placements available.
