This is education at the fingertips of so many different demographics. Expect an innovative learning environment with accessible layers of support available to you.

Our eLAs undertake a three week (20 hour) online training program which equips them with the right technical skills and personalised communication techniques ready to translate to our students. You must successfully complete this training to join our eLA cohort. As well as being paid to complete it, you will receive a certificate of completion for online training with Swinburne Online.

New eLAs are allocated a maximum of two learning groups (up to 35 students per group) for their first teaching period, and allocations are based on student enrolments within the discipline area. There are three Teaching Periods per year, consisting of 12 teaching weeks, and allocations are confirmed two weeks before the Teaching Period starts. Each learning group will require approximately four hours remote log in time per week, and there should not be more than 48 hours between logging in so make sure this time commitment suits you. Marking is part of the eLA role and is paid separately at the end of the Teaching Period.
