What courses do u need to do secondary school teaching (in Australia)

What courses do u need to do secondary school teaching (in Australia)?
I was thinking of going to UWS and I need to know what courses I need to undertake? Also how much fees will be? and what courses I'll need to do if I just do primary teaching. I'm 22 and have completed courses in training and assessment if they help with anything? can't u do HECS instead of paying upfront?

The Cert IV is meaningless with regards to primary and high school teaching. You will need either 1) Bachelor of Education, or 2) Bachelor of X plus a Graduate Diplomain Education , or 3) Bachelor of Education (Primary). Each is a 4 year process.
2 :

At UWS, the Bachelor of Arts (Pathways to Teaching Primary) is a three year full time undergraduate degree. It will allow you to complete an Education Studies major, gaining the necessary learning areas to satisfy the NSW Institute of Teachers discipline knowledge requirements for entry into further studies in teaching. Graduates of the Bachelor of Arts (Pathways to Teaching Primary) who wish to become qualified Primary teachers, continue with the postgraduate Master of Teaching (Primary). The Masters course is offered at the Bankstown campus and is available one year accelerated mode or one and a half years full time. The consecutive combination of an undergraduate Bachelor of Arts (Pathways to Teaching Primary) degree and postgraduate Master of Teaching (Primary) qualification will give you direct access to a teaching career with improved prospects for career advancement. Unless you have a scholarship, you will be paying a yearly HECS fee of $5,422. You can pay it off as a HECS debt but it is cheaper to pay up front...if you can afford it!

Me and My Mom have American Citizenship but want to move and work in Australia. What should we do first?
Me and My Mom are both from Sri Lanka and are seperating from my father and want to settle and work in Austrailia and we want to prepare to move in the next few years. However, we don't have that much money and don't know what to do first. I'll finish college here in America then maybe start graduate school in Australia and my mom works well as a consultant in beauty and makeup. Your answers will help us greatly.

How do I go to college in Australia?
I am from Cleveland, OH and currently lost my mother. In the spirit of trying to live life to the fullest, I am thinking of trying to Study Abroad for my last two years of school. How do I go about looking for Financial Aid for school in Australia and to find a school that is affordable? What steps do I need to take to get this underway?

Apply to the university of your choice and see this website for more information. This will get you started. http://www.immi.gov.au/students/students/chooser/
2 :

Just so you know the truth...if you want to attend school in another country , you need plenty of money...financial aid id usually not available for foreign students. And, you will be required to show proof of a sufficient amount of savings to cover your tuition and living expenses. Are you talking about high school or university? You will find that if you want to "live life to the fullest", you will need to be able to pay for it. I hope you can find a way but just be prepare for it to not be cheap.

In Australia, what is the difference between the Master of Commerce degrees and the MBA degrees

In Australia, what is the difference between the Master of Commerce degrees and the MBA degrees?
I noticed that they offer both of those degrees. The Master of Commerce degrees in Australia are awarded by the Faculty of Business and Economics of the respective school for the most part, at times by the business school. The MBA is always awarded by the Business School of that school. Both degrees are really expensive. What is the main difference between these two degrees and how are they regarded? How would employers in the US for instance distinguish between the Master of Commerce from Australia and the MBA from there? Note, the Master of Commerce is NOT an MS degree. It is a Master in Business. Almost all schools in Australia have it such as Monash, Queensland, Sydney, Macquarie etc. In the States this degree doesn't exist at all.
