Course Duration
The Graduate Diploma of Management (Professional Practice) program is divided into four main streams of formal learning, each containing three Modules. Each Module is of 14 hours duration, so that there is a total of 168 hours of class contact. For each hour of class time participants should expect to spend at least one hour out of class in preparation and follow up work. Classes will commence 4 times per year - February, April, July and October - with delivery sites operating with some flexibility in these time frames to meet the needs of participants. The program is generally spread over a 12-month period commencing in February with some sites offering a mid-year intake in July.
Typical patterns of delivery involve a half-day and evening, or two evenings per week, often with a break between enabling each Stream to be completed in a 6-week time slot. Each delivery site may vary its delivery pattern and will be able to advise prospective participants of their normal mode of delivery.
