Why changing careers doesn't have to be stressful

Starting to realise your current career isn’t really for you? Are you ready to chase the dream you’ve always been passionate about, or maybe you’re just ready for a new challenge? Either way, career changes are more common than ever, with the average person goes through 3-7 careers in their lifetime. Taking that leap can feel daunting, but it doesn’t have to be. The University of New England (UNE) is here to make your transition into a new career smooth, practical, and as rewarding as it should be! Here’s how:

Flexibility that fits your life

You’ve already got a lot on your plate, so adding a university degree on top of all that can seem like a big commitment. So, to help you juggle study with work, family and life in general, UNE offers flexible online learning, allowing you to study when and where it suits you. Whether you want to complete a degree at your own pace or fast-track your studies, UNE offers courses designed for real people with real commitments. No unnecessary stress, just practical learning tailored to your schedule.

Experience you can trust

If you’re putting years into studying, you want reassurance that you’re at a uni that knows what they’re doing. UNE has been delivering long-distance education for over 70 years, long before online learning became the norm. That means they’re the experts of flexible, remote learning. You’ll have access to expert lecturers, interactive resources, and a strong support network to keep you on track.

Wide range of scholarships and fee-help

Worried about the cost of returning to study? UNE offers a range of government-support, scholarships, and payment plans to make study more accessible for everyone. If you want to learn more and find out if you’re eligible, you can take a look at UNE’s Scholarships page.
