Report on renewal of accreditation of a higher education course of study in teach out mode offered by Carrick Higher Education Pty Ltd

TEQSA has determined, under Section 56 of the Tertiary Education Quality and Standards Agency Act 2011 (the TEQSA Act), to renew accreditation of the following higher education course of study in teach out mode offered by Carrick Higher Education Pty Ltd for a period of six months until 17 April 2014:

• Bachelor of Business (Hospitality and Tourism Management)

Background to Decision

Carrick Higher Education Pty Ltd submitted an application for renewal of accreditation of a course of study in teach out mode under Part 4 of the TEQSA Act. The purpose of this decision is to facilitate the completion of studies by students enrolled in the course or the transition of students into other equivalent courses offered by the provider or other higher education providers. This also means that no further enrolments are permitted into this course. Subsection 45(4) of the TEQSA Act requires a registered higher education provider who is not authorised to self-accredit the course of study to apply to TEQSA for accreditation. Subsection 56(4) enables TEQSA to renew accreditation of a course of study for a period not exceeding seven years.

Main Reasons for the Decision

TEQSA has determined that the higher education course of study submitted by Carrick Higher Education Pty Ltd for accreditation complies with the Provider Course Accreditation Standards. The course accreditation covers face to face delivery.
