Summary

Kickstart your career as a professional advisor or manager with this one-year qualification, specialising in either Agribusiness, Business Analytics, Project Management, or Supply Chain Management.

The Postgraduate Diploma in Management (PGDipMgmt) is designed for those who want to gain advanced knowledge in a specialist field of management, along with general business acumen, without having to complete a full master's degree.

With this one-year qualification (120 points), you can select from endorsements in either Agribusiness, Business Analytics, Project Management, or Supply Chain Management.

The PGDipMgmt will prepare you to progress into management roles or transition into new areas of business with confidence.
