Sarit Cohen graduated from the Australian National University School of Art as a Ceramics Major, mentored by Alan Watt and Hiroe Swen. She also completed a Diploma in Education at the University of Canberra, which enabled her to practice as a teacher.

Cohen received the Doug Alexander Memorial Award for Decorative Surface with the Canberra Potters' Society and has completed residencies in Denmark and Switzerland. These opportunities have significantly contributed to the development of her work in the areas of paper clay casting and porcelain manipulation. She received a major equipment grant from artsACT which enabled her to carry on with these experiments.
