At DUELI, I actively communicated with people from different countries by using what I learnt in DUELI classes. I improved a lot in my English and made many friends who come from different cultures, expanding my ways of multicultural thinking, which built a very solid foundation for my study at Deakin University.

Technical and further education (TAFE) pathways

Studying at a TAFE institute can also provide a pathway into Deakin.

Getting a Certificate IV, diploma, advanced or associate degree may give you the academic results you need to get into the Deakin University course that you are interested in.

If you have completed a TAFE qualification at Diploma level or above, you may be eligible to receive Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) to reduce the duration and cost of your Deakin degree.
