Many adults are choosing to return to studies to gain the knowledge and skills they need to help their future career aspirations. The majority of courses students are looking to study, whether it be business, technology or ICT, may also require students to complete the necessary general education requirements in order to enrol and complete their certification.
General education skills such as reading, writing, numeracy and employability skills are required and essential to prepare you for a new career. If you are considering returning to studies you can expect to learn a variety of different skills that will impact your ability to complete your change of career. General education holds significant relevance as it allows students to acquire or hone in on skills they may not possess.
For many returning students, focusing on their core skills or a particular area of interest may be their main priority, however, the skills taught in general education will prepare you to advance steadily in your chosen field and will significantly improve your employability. Employers are looking to employ professionals that possess not only career-focused knowledge, but also the intangible skills necessary to perform the job well.
Throughout the completion of the general education requirements, you will develop the necessary skills that can help you stand out of the crowd of job seekers. Understanding the value in completing this certification will allow you to build your skills in several key areas that employers require:

This course helps students improve employability and provides access to further education and training opportunities. Kangan Institute’s general education course is designed as learning support and customised to assist students who are already undertaking studies with us. Often students undertaking pre-apprenticeships or other vocational studies for the first time may also need to further develop their literacy and numeracy skills in order to successfully complete their vocational course work.
General education requirements have many important purposes. It is in the interests of students, employers, colleges and universities and society to keep this important element of education.
