You will need regular access to a laptop, desktop computer or another device with an adequate and reliable internet connection, at least the equivalent of Microsoft Office or Office for Mac, with wordprocessing capabilities and spreadsheets and a PDF reader installed, full permissions to install and access third-party software as required. You will also need regular access to a laptop, desktop computer or device with an adequate camera to undertake video calls for assessments as required.
How is the course delivered?

You’ll complete a combination of quizzes, written activities, and practical assessment tasks to demonstrate your skills.
What are the assessments?
There are no exams for the course. All assessments involve practical and job-ready applications based on your workplace or the case studies we provide. There are different assessment elements, including interactive simulation and role play activities. These activities are conducted with a Learning Coach and may need to be completed with others (e.g. coworkers, friends or family) in real-time through Zoom or in a pre-recorded video. Video assessments allow us to assess your interpersonal skills needed for management roles. This is an innovative method to engage with your learning by acting out crucial situations you would encounter in the workplace, in a safe environment with an industry expert. You’ll be able to hone your new skills in real-time with your Learning Coach and get valuable feedback so you can confidently demonstrate your learning in the workplace.

Depending on the time you commit and your learning style, studying part-time you could see you complete the course in approximately 20 months. You’ll have the freedom to study when it suits you with our generous 24-month enrolment period.
