Master the Wayilwan Language while strengthening your cultural identity through practical conversations and everyday communication skills. This nationally recognised Certificate I is designed for Aboriginal learners seeking to preserve and use their language in daily life and community settings.
This course requires evidence of previous experience or study before you can enrol. A teacher will contact you to make sure this is the right course for you. We recommend having a passion for strengthening your Aboriginal Language use for current and future generations. TAFE NSW tailors courses to meet local community needs, so some campuses may have extra entry requirements. Support is available to help you prepare for the course.
The course comprises 5 core units of competency covering: Develop everyday conversational skills in an Aboriginal Language, Develop everyday reading and writing skills in an Aboriginal Language, Explore local Aboriginal Language and Cultural Identity, Use technology to support Aboriginal Language learning, and Develop a basic resource to share everyday Aboriginal Language. Students engage in practical coursework combining theory with hands-on language practice, developing skills in listening, speaking, reading and writing while creating learning resources to share with family and community.
