What is TAE Plus?
TAE Plus is a new initiative from Sportsready Education, reimagining pathways to teaching so educators can thrive, not just survive.
TAE Plus combines nationally recognised qualifications with a deep focus on wellbeing and purpose. It’s designed to prepare confident, healthy educators who reconnect with why they teach — not just how.
Through two flexible learning options — the Holistic Educator program and the TAE Full Certification (TAE40122) — TAE Plus provides the knowledge, tools, and support to thrive in today’s education and training landscape. This program is ideal for anyone who wants to make an impact, inspire others and open doors to a meaningful career in education.
What makes TAE Plus different?
The modern world is in desperate need of great educators. Not just those with a qualification, but those with a purpose. Our program is a movement built on a simple philosophy: Healthy teachers create healthy students. We equip you with the skills to train and inspire others by first helping you understand yourself.
- Purpose-driven: Rediscover your passion for education.
- Resilience-focused: Learn to thrive under pressure.
- Efficient: Gain your qualification in as little as 6 months.
- Community-based: Never learn alone — ongoing support and mentorship.
