Helping qualified migrant teachers or degree holders get into Australian schools

The pathway to becoming a teacher for those with qualifications from overseas can be complicated in Australia, potentially blocking thousands from joining the industry. A special master's degree is helping to fix that. Sydney Institute for Community Languages (SICLE) is helping overseas qualified teachers to become accredited in Australian schools. It has initiated a bridging course of Master of Teaching for many aspirant teachers to join mainstream teaching system. Dr. Ken Cruickshank, Professor in Education and TESOL, Sydney School of Education and Social Work, Director, Sydney Institute of Community Language Education, The University of Sydney explains the details.
