The Centre for Education and Innovation (CEI) offers a Graduate Certificate in Higher Education (GHCE) to advance your career as a tertiary educator. This course equips you with a sound theoretical and scholarly foundation to inform the development of your academic practice and enhance our students’ learning experience.

The course is structured as follows:
