Market and Promote Linkages and Pathways

Approximately half of Southern Cross University's students have successfully undertaken learning elsewhere on their path to University.

 It's just one reason why we collaborate with other educational organisations to:

  • develop media campaigns that promote credit linkage and pathway opportunities/testimonials;
  • implement seamless co-offer and transitional support for credit linkage and pathway students;
  • promote credit linkage and pathway options and benefits to the wider community through our publications, industry partnerships and visits to secondary schools, careers expos and open days; and
  • refer to credit linkage and pathway arrangements when guiding students to plan and diversify their study and career options.

Obtain promotional materials

We are pleased to provide course promotional materials and to attend your Open Day, Careers Expo or Pathways to University Information Session, so students and graduates can make an informed decision about further study.

Credit linkages and pathways with Southern Cross University:

  • provide greater support for people transitioning between different academic levels, cultures and technologies;
  • build academic skills and confidence progressively, over time and facilitate life-long-learning;
  • reduce the overall cost and duration of a degree;
  • allow students to use their prior vocational knowledge and skills to work their way through their degree; and
  • reward a person with multiple qualifications in the shortest possible time, which is advantageous for employment, promotion and better pay.
