Enabling courses
Enabling courses are offered to support you in achieving academic success. Courses are held before the start of each semester, and as weekly tutorials throughout the teaching year.
The Tertiary Enabling Program (TEP) offers a range of enabling courses in key areas. These courses allow you to learn new skills, refresh your knowledge, and increase your potential for excellent results in your undergraduate degree program.
Enabling courses are free-of-charge to Commonwealth-supported and International students, they don’t count towards your degree and they have no impact on your overall university grades.
