Everything you need to know as a SEDA College student considering a Sport & Business Program as your next step
Graduates of Sport & Business Programs, powered by SEDA have access to a wide range of higher education courses through our university partners. You may hear these referenced as ‘articulations’.
Graduates may benefit from direct entry to this list of courses. The list also outlines the credit arrangements available where they are available. Credits refer to the number of units that would usually need to be completed as part of the course but have already been met through successful completion of the Sport & Business Program. The more credit arrangements available, the more the time to complete your preferred course is reduced. Direct entry may be subject to eligibility criteria specific to each education partner and credit arrangements vary from course to course.
As Sport & Business Programs are designed to prepare you for work or further study, they may have the added benefit of assisting graduates in obtaining part-time or casual work while undertaking further study. Graduates who have experienced this benefit have made the most of networking and work-integrated learning opportunities throughout their time in the program.
The below table provides a general summary of the different levels of partner engagement between SEDA College and a Sport & Business Program.
It is important to note that there are also differences relating to the curriculum and qualification level which you can find more information on below.

With a Sport & Business Program you undertake:
As a diploma qualification is a tertiary-level offering, there is also a greater expectation for students to be self-driven. This includes ensuring assessments are completed on time, monitoring communications from teachers and partners, and taking responsibility for the requirements of any volunteering and workplace learning opportunities.
*You may see this written formally as “SEDA Group is responsible for the training and assessment and the issuance of AQF academic documentation on successful completion of a full or partial study program”.
No.
Sport & Business Programs use a range of assessment methods including, but not limited to, projects, written tasks, online quizzes and observations.
Yes.
Our eligibility requirements do include Year 12 or equivalent, but you do not need an ATAR.
You can apply for a Sport & Business Program at any time, but you will not be eligible to start the program until you have completed your final year at SEDA College (or other Year 12 equivalent) and received your Year 12 Secondary School Certificate.

Similarities include:
SEDA College students may be eligible for credit/s toward the SIS50321 Diploma of Sport and BSB50120 Diploma of Business that underpin the Sport & Business Programs.
As the certificate-level qualifications offered through SEDA Colleges are delivered by external RTOs, the credits you may be eligible for will depend on which college you studied with and what qualification/s you completed. Please ask for more information at your interview to get an accurate assessment of the credits that may be available to you and how that may reduce your fees.
Applications are assessed, and places offered to eligible applicants, on a first-in-first-served basis. In 2024, two programs went to waitlists and we expect those and others to do the same ahead of 2025. We therefore encourage you to get in early and progress through pre-enrolment stages at your earliest convenience to avoid missing out.
Early application and pre-enrolment also allow us to support you with our Study Readiness Programs (Enabling Courses) if your LLND score doesn’t meet the level required for the Sport & Business Program.
The LLND, PTR, and interview that you complete as part of pre-enrolment are designed to help us determine if the program is suitable for you, and any support you may need.
If your LLND results are below the level required for the Sport & Business Programs, we have Study Readiness Programs (Enabling Courses) that can help you to improve the relevant area/s. This will be discussed with you at your pre-enrolment interview.
If you do have concerns, please feel free to contact our Student Enrolment Manager on 1300 777 332 or via info@seda.edu.au from 9am to 5pm weekdays (AEST).
