Beginners - The beginners stream is for students who have little or no knowledge of Hebrew. It is available to students at both first and second year, although students intending to complete a major will need to commence their language study in first year.

Intermediate - The intermediate stream is for students who have some knowledge of Hebrew, but who have not studied it at VCE level.

Post-VCE - The post-VCE stream is usually only available to students who have obtained a pass in VCE Hebrew, or its equivalent.
