Graduate Certificate of Secondary Design & Technologies Education After many years of advocacy to the Government on the urgent need to address the critical shortage of Design & Technologies teachers, we were delighted when the DoE announced that from 2024, they will be funding a free Grad Cert in Design & Technologies Education for out of field educators. Delivered by Deakin University and supported by DATTA Vic, there will be 55 government school teachers retrained to deliver the Design & Technologies curriculum across the state.
