Programs with strong international-student appeal

Diploma of Nursing

The HLT54121 Diploma of Nursing is one of Stanley College’s strongest professional programs. The 104-week course combines face-to-face learning, simulated nursing practice and 560 hours of clinical placement. Graduates may apply to the Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia for registration as an Enrolled Nurse, subject to meeting all registration requirements.

Nursing applicants must satisfy the separate NMBA English Language Registration Standard, academic requirements, pre-enrolment assessment and placement-readiness checks. Asia Pathway can help students review these requirements before an application is submitted.

Individual Support and Community Services

The Certificate III in Individual Support offers Ageing and Disability specialisations with practical training and Work-Based Training. Students seeking more advanced community-sector responsibilities can progress to the Diploma of Community Services, while eligible pathways may support further study toward the Bachelor of Community Services.

Early Childhood Education and Care

Stanley College offers a structured pathway from the Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care to the Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care. Students build practical experience through simulated activities and supervised workplace training in regulated education and care settings.

Commercial Cookery and Hospitality

The commercial cookery pathway can progress from the Certificate III in Commercial Cookery through the Certificate IV in Kitchen Management, Diploma of Hospitality Management and Advanced Diploma of Hospitality Management. Practical training at the Hay Street campus and CU29 Restaurant and Bar is a major advantage for students preparing for kitchen, restaurant and hospitality-management careers.

Information Technology, Business and Management

Students can study the Diploma of Information Technology with a Cyber Security focus, the Diploma of Business or the Graduate Diploma of Management (Learning). Stanley College also offers bachelor’s degrees in Business, Information and Communications Technology, and Community Services, together with the Graduate Certificate, Graduate Diploma and Master of Business.

The Bachelor of Business offers majors in Accounting, Management, Digital Marketing, and Hospitality and Events Management. The Accounting major is professionally accredited by CPA Australia and Chartered Accountants Australia and New Zealand, while all higher education programs emphasise practical projects and work-integrated learning.

Practical learning and study pathways

Stanley College’s integrated vocational and higher education structure gives suitable students opportunities to progress from practical diploma study into related degrees. Formal credit and advanced standing depend on the student’s completed qualification and an individual assessment; Asia Pathway will help request written confirmation before presenting a shortened duration.

Placement-based courses can require police checks, health documentation, vaccinations, Working with Children checks or other host-employer requirements. These requirements should be reviewed early because they may affect a student’s ability to complete the practical component.

Student support and life in Australia

International students can access orientation, academic skills support, English assistance, counselling, career guidance, CV and interview preparation, industry events, internship or placement coordination, computer access and campus Wi-Fi. Stanley College also provides accommodation referrals and airport-arrival assistance.

Stanley College does not operate an on-campus dormitory. Accommodation support may include homestay or shared accommodation referrals in Perth and Adelaide, subject to availability and the final price confirmed at booking.
