维多利亚大学- 墨尔本校区（2026 年 2 月，GD 幼教仍接受申请，各项截止时间）

近期VU 墨尔本收到了不少关于 幼儿教育研究生文凭课程（Graduate Diploma of Early Childhood Education, GDECE）是否仍开放 2026 年 2 月入学的咨询——在此确认：是的，目前仍然开放，并且线上与线下两种学习模式均可选择 。

正如你可能已经注意到的，幼儿教育行业仍处于高度紧缺状态，并且受到政府的大力支持。仅在维多利亚州，州政府已承诺投入 140 亿澳元，用于扩大幼儿园项目，并在全州范围内建设 50 所政府-owned 的 Early Learning Victoria 幼儿教育中心：https://www.schoolbuildings.vic.gov.au/50-early-learning-victoria-centres

以下是该课程的简要信息，供你转发给学生参考：

• 学制：1 年
• 奖学金： 20% 奖学金
• 2 月入学：学生可在同一自然年内完成课程
• 学习模式：校内学习（持学生签证）线上学习（非学生签证）
• 实习要求：60 天受监督的专业实习
• 课程认证：获得 ACECQA 官方认证

VU 鼓励学生在条件允许的情况下自行寻找实习机构，因为这通常更接近居住地，并可能增加后续就业机会。

当然，如有需要，VU 实习安置团队也可提供支持。请注意，课程名额有限，强烈建议尽早接受录取。

同时，也提醒大家关注 2026 年 2 月入学的重要时间节点，并确保及时完成相关操作：

Hope you had a great and relaxing weekend.

I have received quite a number of enquiries regarding whether Graduate Diploma of Early Childhood Education (GDECE) at VU Melbourne is still open for Feb 2026 intake - and Yes, it is 😊 for both online and on-campus study modes.

As you may have seen, the Early Childhood sector remains in strong demand, and is heavily supported by government. In Victoria alone, the State Government has committed $14 billion to expand kindergarten programs and deliver 50 new government-owned Early Learning Victoria childcare centres across the state: https://www.schoolbuildings.vic.gov.au/50-early-learning-victoria-centres

Below is a quick overview of the program that you can share with the students:

• Duration: 1 year
• 20% scholarship available
• Feb intake – students can complete the program within the same calendar year
• Study mode: On-campus (Student visa holders) or Online (Non-student visa holders)
• 60 days of supervised professional experience
• ACECQA-accredited qualification

VU encourages students to source their own placement where possible, as this is often closer to home and may increase opportunities for ongoing employment. However, placement assistance from VU Placement Team is always available if required. And please note that places are limited, hence early acceptance is strongly recommended.

Also, a quick reminder to check February 2026 intake key dates and ensure timely action.
