Get Set Education has specifically tailored this course to engage and equip Australian high school students. We offer flexible delivery options for this Cert IV, with students able to study online or in their school classroom.

Get Set Education offers two delivery modes for this course, depending on student needs, class sizes, and location.

School Based, Teacher-Led

Schools may enter into a third-party agreement with Get Set Education to offer this course. Suitably qualified teachers are provided with support, professional development, and resources to deliver the course face-to-face, along with an online learning component. Studies are based at the learner’s school, combined with the online learning platform.

Online Based, Trainer-Led

Students login and work on the course from anywhere and access their weekly scheduled lesson via the online learning platform. They’ll have access to our qualified trainer who will do weekly progress check-ins and provide virtual support.

In addition, all learners must undertake non-structured learning activities such as self-initiated learning, relevant research, and private study, prep, and follow up. Plus, other relevant activities (pending trainer’s approval) such as attending expos, watching webinars, and undertaking relevant non-accredited training courses.

There are no prerequisites for this qualification. However, to make sure you can keep up with the assessment and modules, Get Set Education requires that students have:

• A pass in English on their most recent school report card
• Appropriate Language, Literacy, and Numeracy skills (each student will need to complete an online assessment prior to finalising enrolment to ensure the course is suitable)
• A computer or laptop to access the online platform during class and in their own time
• An interest in business subjects
• Permission from parent/guardian (if under 18 years of age)

If you have already completed training with another RTO or have evidence of equivalent studies, we can grant you credit towards your course for applicable units of competency. Students can submit a Credit Application Form as part of their enrolment.

Once students have successfully completed the BSB40320 Certificate IV in Entrepreneurship and New Business, they’ll have the skills and confidence to make their own career path as a business owner or manager. They may become a sole trader, freelancer, or even launch their own small business in an industry that matches their skills and interests.

Alternatively, learners who complete this course may wish to continue their education into a Diploma level qualification or higher education. Graduates may qualify for university pathways like guaranteed entry into certain degrees or credit points towards courses.

The Certificate IV in Entrepreneurship and New Business can also be used as a bridging course to University (available for Year 11 and 12 students).
