Professional Experience Office (Gold Coast)
We are an integral part of the School of Education and Professional Studies on the Gold Coast. All students enrolled in Education will do professional experience at schools during their degree.
Schools include state, independent and private primary and secondary.
Education students are known as preservice teachers.
Our office is responsible for assigning preservice teachers to schools, publishing handbooks and reports, arranging university supervision of preservice teachers, receiving back the reports and processing payments for teachers and school coordinators.
