Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) and credit transfer:

Nungalinya College recognises that a student may come to study with skills that deserve recognition.  Students who believe they already have the learning required to show competency in units offered, can apply to the College for recognition of prior learning.  This RPL process will be explained along with the necessary support evidence, which will require the demonstration of prior knowledge and skills.

Nungalinya College accepts qualifications issued by other Registered Training Organisations.  Credits for Statements of Attainment received in units or modules offered can be transferred, upon production of these certificates.

The Enrolment Process

Nungalinya works closely with Indigenous communities and churches across Australia.  The College does do not have an open enrolment process, as only Indigenous people are eligible for the training offered.  Typically students are recruited directly within their remote community, although some students come from regional and urban areas.

Indigenous persons who are interested in study at Nungalinya should contact their local church congregation or their Church’s dean at the College (Anglican dean, Catholic dean or Uniting Church dean freecall 1800 645 147). 

The College will forward information about being a student, including student rights and responsibilities, and the special mixed mode study offered.  The appropriate College dean will then begin the enrolment process.

Privacy Provisions

As a Registered Training Organisation the College has to collect certain personal information about our students.  The Privacy Act and our College Privacy Policy ensures that all personal information is kept confidential and not released without written approval.

Nungalinya College will only collect information necessary for the delivery of services and programs and keep personal information in a special file which the student has a right to view.  If the student determines the College has not dealt correctly with personal information the student can use the Grievance Procedure which will be explained upon enrolment.

Nungalinya's courses are delivered through the Darwin campus, and in partnership with our agencies in Queensland, New South Wales, South Australia.  We provide a unique blend of courses that are tailored to suit the needs of Indigenous communities. Our schools are as follows:

  • Theology: providing theology courses that address the unique nature of Aboriginality and Spirituality. They are designed to develop personal faith and equip people for practical Christian ministry.
     
  • School of Family and Community Services: is designed to provide an exposure to work in the community services industry. This includes aged care and disability studies.
      
  • Cross-cultural Awareness: Available to non-Indigenous Australians who work with Indigenous people. These courses are delivered by Indigenous Trainers. They are not accredited.
     
  • Indigenous Futures Project: The course has been created to allow young women aged 15+ to feel appreciated while undertaking some study and make decisions about the next stage of their lives.
