About

In today's world things move quickly. People used to have jobs for life, but today you can expect to have at least eight different careers. Everyone's journey is different, so at Holmesglen, we're here to help you get the qualification that's right for you.

Study a degree at Holmesglen At Holmesglen, when it comes to higher education, we think differently. We know that employers want people with recognised qualifications and enough experience to be capable and confident employees. That is why our degree programs combine theory with technical skills and real world experience.

These days, human capital experts are encouraging people to educate themselves throughout their career, rather than push all their study into the beginning. We understand that not every journey to a degree is the same. That is why we have made it easy for you to enrol straight into the first year of a degree or to choose a certificate or diploma pathway.

A degree pathway with Holmesglen delivers real benefits:

  • Build a solid foundation of practical skills
  • Receive credits for completed studies to finish your program faster
  • Graduate with multiple qualifications
  • Use your pathway qualifications to get relevant work and experience while you finish your degree studies
  • In some cases a pathway option may even save money on fees

Your future starts now At Holmesglen, our qualifications combine theory, industry experience and practical skills so you are job ready.

Studying one of our 530+ programs is not just about gaining a qualification

it's about being equipped with the confidence and skills to work in today's fast paced world. You will learn from teachers with industry experience, work on real world projects and train in simulated work environments.

Industry connections Holmesglen works closely with many organisations across all our study areas so you graduate confident, capable and industry ready. Work placements, industry based projects, field trips and internships are just some of the ways we work with our industry partners to ensure you get the relevant training you need, opportunities to learn from industry professionals and the chance to network with future employers.
