Graduate Certificate of Business Administration
Business, administration and law
The best administrators are equally talented at managing tasks as they are at managing people – they’re leaders, innovators, clear communicators, strategic thinkers, planners, decision makers and creative problem-solvers. The Graduate Certificate of Business Administration is designed for those wishing to learn or update their knowledge of key elements of business management. It will develop your understanding of key business practices related to people, finance, marketing and strategy. The Graduate Certificate of Business Administration is primarily delivered at our City Campus. However, some units are delivered at our Wallumattagal Campus in Macquarie Park or online. To successfully complete the course, you may need to attend classes at both campuses and/or online.
