Course Overview


This qualification is suited to project managers who are responsible for the entire lifecycle of a project. It provides the skills and working knowledge, as well as the understanding of methods, techniques and tools available, to plan and manage projects that achieve the goals and objectives important to project managers and their organisation. It is suitable for those who develop project management plans and have sole responsibility for achieving a project’s objectives; who report the outcomes of a project to a higher authority in their organisation; or those who monitor and review the whole project as it progresses through its lifecycle.

Learning Outcomes

  • coordinate the activities laid out in a project management plan and support project managers at all levels
  • use mechanisms linked with the project plan for the day-today control of projects to meet objectives
  • provide quality deliverables, with the ability to meet reporting requirements on demand
  • select appropriate tools to support monitoring and control mechanisms
  • assign agreed responsibilities to get the best out of core and broader team capabilities.

Study period and workload

A practising project manager should be able to complete the qualification in approximately 7 to 8 hours a week over a 12 to 18-month study period depending on the level of experience. This includes workplace practice, self-directed study and completion of assessment tasks. The study period allocated at enrolment will depend on the entry pathway. This estimate is based on AQF guidelines and will vary according to student experience and current practice.  

Assessment

Students need to demonstrate their application of skills and knowledge, against the competency requirements, by submitting detailed explanations of their experience and underpinning knowledge together with supporting evidence. RPL available.
