(BSB51107) DIPLOMA OF MANAGEMENT

The Diploma of Management addresses the core leadership competencies required of managers in today’s commercial environment. It is particularly appropriate for those with operational or technical backgrounds, who are now tasked with the managing of others. It is also an excellent learning platform for newly promoted staff and a valuable accessory for the more experienced manager. Blending theory with practice, this qualification focuses on workplace learning and development to ensure situational relevance. This qualification is designed for individuals with managerial responsibilities in an operational context. These managers regularly oversee the work of others, or perform specialised roles that require applied operational leadership. Relevant roles vary by industry sector and include Project Coordinator, Operations Manager, Senior Supervisor, and Team Leader.
