The Australian Government has introduced changes affecting the delivery of BSB80120 Graduate Diploma of Management (Learning) (GDML) to overseas students.
From 5 October 2026, providers will no longer be able to enrol new overseas students, issue new CoEs for the GDML, or commence overseas students who have not already commenced the course. Future GDML CoEs will also be cancelled.
Students who have already commenced the GDML before 5 October 2026 can continue studying and complete the course with their current provider.
Students who have a GDML CoE but have not commenced by 5 October 2026 will not be able to commence the course, and their GDML CoE will be cancelled. Affected students should contact the College as soon as possible to discuss their available options.
Students whose packaged enrolment includes the GDML as a later course should also contact the College to discuss how the change affects their study package and available options.
For visa-related questions, students should refer to the Department of Home Affairs or seek advice from an appropriately registered migration agent. Australian Federation College cannot provide migration advice.
