The Melbourne Rudolf Steiner Seminar is an endorsed provider to international students for the full-time Advanced Diploma course. The Seminar has welcomed students from the UK, Europe, South Africa, United States, Bhutan, Japan, South Asia, and South America for over 15 years.
Past students have returned to their countries and applied the qualification and experience gained here in a variety of ways. These include teaching, early childhood education, and providing education support for children with added needs.
International students have contributed enormously, in rich and enduring ways to our teaching and learning here at the Seminar. They have expanded themselves by coming to Australia to undertake their study in Rudolf Steiner education, and have similarly brought great depth and experience to students and staff in Australia.
