Our Master of Teacher (Secondary) program is offered on campus at Mt Helen (Ballarat) in an accelerated mode over 1.5 years.  It is also offered online over 3 years part-time.  We offer flexible pathways to suit peoples’ individual circumstances; this means blended options that include a combination of on campus and online study are also possible.

Through coursework linked to the Australian Graduate Teaching Standards, regular classroom observations, practitioner inquiries linked to personal goals, regular opportunities to develop core teaching practices, and with the support of professional learning communities, students develop the skills, understandings and dispositions for effective teaching.

The program at Mt Helen is situated in a school context which means theory-practice connections are made in regular, meaningful learning experiences.  Our program is small and people-centred. It provides the ideal learning environment where you can become a teacher equipped to make a difference.
