    • GSF: Guided Spiritual Formation is a 3 credit point elective Unit in the PC Subject area. If you complete 4 units of GSF (i.e. PC155-603, PC156-603, P157-603, and PC158-603) then they count as 12 credit points, or one full unit toward your diploma. Advanced Diploma students might also consider taking GSF at a higher level (i.e. PC056-603, PC057-603, PC058-603, and PC059-603) for it to count as one of your AQF6 units. This is available on campus in Perth, or online for all other students.  If you plan to exit in under two calendar years, do not take GSF for credit, as they are offered on a two year cycle. 

    • Need more information about a unit? The ACT website (below) contains a description of each unit, including a content summary, and co-/pre-requisites. Use the search field to look up the unit name or code.
