EEBED3106 Professional Placement C: Alternative and Diverse

This course is part of a sequence of four courses of professional experience designed to develop students' competencies as professional teachers. It comprises a supervised teaching experience of 15 days in an educational setting or educational program. It is designed to encourage, inspire and challenge all Pre-Service Teachers (PSTs) to choose to explore alternative learning settings in which good educational practice occurs. The placement is underpinned by the intention to extend the PSTs¿ perceptions of teaching and learning outside of the traditional and familiar educational environment. Throughout this placement, PSTs immerse themselves in the diverse possibilities and opportunities available to them. PSTs also have the opportunity to complete this placement interstate and internationally. This 15 day placement can occur as a block placement however, there is flexibility to complete it part time over both Semester I and 2, for example, one/two days per week across multiple weeks, depending on the academic timetable and the structure of the placement the PST is engaging in.

Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) unit fee

A Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) is one that is subsidised by the Australian Government, which means students only pay the student contribution amount of the tuition fee. CSPs are only available to eligible domestic students.

The student contribution amount depends on the unit and how much funding the Government provides. Each unit is classified into a band based on its discipline (which may be different to your overall course discipline).   

2025 student contribution amount: $578


2025 grandfathered student contribution amount (for students who commenced before 1 Jan 2021*): $578

* If you are a continuing student (who commenced your course before 1 January 2021) you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.

Clinical Psychology & Professional Pathways 

For Clinical Psychology & Professional Pathways bands, the student contribution amount is determined by the accredited course. Visit our CSP page for further information, including a list of accredited courses. Students not studying in an accredited course will pay the fees listed above. 

Domestic full fee–paying places

A domestic full fee–paying place is one that isn’t subsidised by the Australian Government. These places are offered to postgraduate students or those who are ineligible for a CSP. Domestic postgraduate tuition fees are course-based annual fees, which means individual unit fees vary according to the degree.

International full fee–paying places

International tuition fees are course-based annual fees and the unit fee you pay will vary according to the degree you are studying. To find out more about international tuition fees and view the relevant fee schedule visit our fees website
