Endorsed programs offer Year 10, 11 and 12 students the opportunity to use workplace learning, university studies, community organisation and personal development programs to meet the completion requirement of the WA Certificate of Education (WACE). Students can be involved in any of these types of learning activities through a variety of strategies in or outside of school time.

Endorsed programs are given 'unit equivalence'. This effectively means that one or a combination of programs is considered equal to one unit of a WACE course. A maximum of ten unit equivalents can be counted towards the WACE. Achievement of endorsed programs must be reported to the Council in the year they are achieved or completed.

Endorsed programs are categorised into one of four types of learning. Follow the links below to view the programs endorsed in each category. 

• Workplace learning
• University studies
• Community organisation
• Personal development  

Unit equivalence is awarded in points. Five points is the equivalent of one unit.
