Professional Development (single courses)

If you don’t want to commit to a full degree just yet, or you need to satisfy requirements for Continuing Professional Education, our single courses taken from USQ’s award programs are perfect for you.

Why would I enrol in a single course?

The types of people who may choose to enrol in just one course include the following: 

  • professionals wishing to upgrade skills or to gain skills in a new area
  • people wishing to 'try out' tertiary study in a particular subject area
  • professionals satisfying Continuing Professional Education (CPE) or Continuing Professional Development (CPD) requirements
  • fee-paying students (international or postgraduate) from other universities wishing to gain credit towards their studies
  • students with overseas accounting qualifications wishing to meet CPA Australia and ICAA requirements.

What courses can I study?

You can choose from over 700 distance education courses taken from USQ’s award programs at both undergraduate and postgraduate level. The courses are offered on a fee-paying (non HECS) basis. You can calculate the cost of your course using the Course Fee Finder.

If you are undertaking Continuing Professional Education (CPE) or Continuing Professional Development (CPD), please contact your professional association for confirmation on which courses will satisfy their requirements.
