Who is the course for?

The Master of Learning Intervention has two streams depending on your profession or desired outcomes. Stream A is suitable for teachers who are eligible for Victorian Institute of Teaching (VIT) registration but seek additional qualifications to work as special educators. Stream A students may already have worked with people with disabilities, hearing impairments or specific learning difficulties in other community contexts. Stream B is suitable for allied health practitioners, early childhood educators* and international students who are not seeking VIT endorsed special educator qualifications but who wish to increase their understanding and skills in learning intervention.
