Be the support children need to thrive!
Our online Education Assistant diploma program helps you build the communication, planning and observational skills needed to play a vital supportive role in the classroom. You’ll explore child development psychology, curriculum design and instructional strategies to help create inclusive, learning-friendly environments.
You’ll develop a solid understanding of how children grow and learn—cognitively, socially, emotionally, physically and linguistically—so you can respond thoughtfully to each student’s needs. This may mean assisting with lessons and activities, supporting students who need extra help with mobility and personal care, and helping educators in various tasks, such as marking work, preparing displays and managing classroom records.
The program includes a module on supporting students with special needs as well as a separate module on working with English language learners. These will give you fundamental strategies to help a diverse range of students succeed in school and become part of a cohesive, productive society. A 4-week practicum puts your new skills into practice, giving you real-world experience and the confidence to pursue a rewarding career path.
