timetables, fees & course requirements
timetable duration and delivery:
All programs are designed to fit the Board of Studies guidelines. The program involves face to face tuition completed during Years 11 and 12. By popular demand delivery is by intensive block attendance during school holidays, offering flexibility and equal access to all interested public and private, regional and metropolitan students.
The full duration of Certificate II courses is 240 hours over Year 11 and 12. Preliminary Statement of Attainment involves 120 hours to satisfy Year 11 requirements.
Due to the courses being run outside of school hours in an intensive holiday block format, students do not require any leave or exemption to complete a Whitehouse Certificate II course for VET in Schools.
The Whitehouse Institute will endeavour to give students their first course of choice. However due to logistics of timetabling, alternate preferences or combined classes might be necessary.
Minimum numbers of students apply.
