Relevant work experience

Relevant work experience includes a minimum of two years' work in a professional, knowledge-based or information-oriented workplace. This may include work in administration, business, customer support, finance, government, human resources, law, marketing, operations/project management, strategy and sustainability. This will need to be supported with evidence.

Evidence of relevant work experience should include a letter from your employer (and/or previous employers) clearly stating the following:

  • That you work (or worked) within the specified organisation
  • The nature of your work, detailing any relevant duties and responsibilities to the entry criteria above
  • The length of time you were in your role/s (i.e demonstrating minimum length for entry) and whether this was full-time, part-time, or casual

Letters will typically be expected to be presented on company letterhead and signed by a manager or HR representative. A CV or resume is not a sufficient document on its own, and must be accompanied by a supporting letter as described above.

All applications based on work experience are subject to an individual assessment.

Entry into a program through work experience does not necessarily provide a pathway into further study in a Masters.
