 Yes! Open University degrees are recognized in Australia. As a guide with years of experience, I can confirm that Open University is a reputable institution offering accredited programs that are recognized internationally, including in Australia. 

Australian universities and employers often acknowledge the qualifications obtained from Open Universities, considering them on par with degrees from traditional universities. 

However, it's always advisable to verify specific recognition requirements for your intended field of study or employment to ensure a seamless transition. 

Overall, pursuing a degree from Open University can be a viable option for students aspiring to study in Australia.
