ARE YOU LOOKING FOR NEW WAYS TO UTILISE YOUR SKILLS? HAVE YOU CONSIDERED MOVING INTO THE EDUCATION INDUSTRY AND BECOMING A TRAINER?

Become a better business leader.

Some people are "natural leaders", while others need to work on developing techniques and skills. Even natural leaders can benefit from undertaking some formal studies in leadership.

Leadership involves enabling and stimulating things to happen. It requires an understanding of those you are leading, an appreciation for what is hoped to be achieved and the application of the most appropriate techniques for the time and place.

In any business, supervisors, managers and business owners all need to understand, appreciate and apply leadership skills. Study this course to improve your leadership skill, and your career prospects both now and in the future.

GET INTO A LUCRATIVE CAREER AS A TOP MANAGER!
Managers are common - but good managers are not. Top level managers become known both inside and outside an organisation. The very best managers are regularly headhunted by recruitment agencies offering better jobs, conditions and pay.   This is because good management can seriously affect the viability of a company, and improve everything from productivity to worker satisfaction and profitability.

This course provides a very sound foundation for increasing your capacity to manage in any situation - be it within your own business, somebody else's, or a government department.

For most people, this course is being related totally or mostly to a workplace. The course does however present management concepts and skills which are relevant in any type of organisation or enterprise, including:

• Private Businesses (small, medium and large).

• Government Organisations (eg. Government departments and authorities)

• Non Profit or Charity Organisations (eg. Red Cross)

• Professional Associations (eg. Society of Accountants)

• Sporting or Recreational Clubs

• Community Organisations (eg. A School or Park Management Committee)

LEARN HOW TO MOTIVATE STAFF AND IMPROVE PRODUCTIVITY AND MORALE! 

Motivated staff can make a big difference to sales and profit.  Getting staff to work efficiently, effectively, and to their best ability, is often simply dependant on a little motivation.

Imagine being able to go for a job interview and explain in detail how you would increase staff productivity and therefore profit.  Companies are always interested in employing people who they believe can bring much more money into the business.

This is an invaluable course for managers who want to understand how to get the best from their staff.  Time is money, and motivated staff can make all the difference to business success.

LEARN THE SKILLS TO OVERSEE THE MANAGEMENT OF STAFF!

The Personnel Manager/Human Resources Manager is much more than a supervisor. In fact, the Personnel Manager assists in the selection and overseeing of all supervisors and staff. 

This course enables you to learn the skills required to become a Personnel Manager and learn to organise and manage the employees in any workplace, more effectively.

This course will develop your ability to carry out the various tasks associated with managing personnel, such as recruitment, training and controlling. Emphasis is placed on knowledge and methods that will improve workplace morale and productivity.

This is not supervision (which deals with face to face management, working with a team as the team leader); but it complements supervision. The personnel manager (in a larger organisation) usually oversees and manages a number of teams of staff each headed by a supervisor.

MOVE INTO A CAREER AS A PROJECT MANAGER!

Project Management is a skill which can be learned and developed. It provides unlimited potential for career and job opportunities, as almost every industry, situation and business require project managers. This course is just as relevant to a construction project as it is to managing a new product launch! It is a best suited to someone who has some prior experience, education or training in management.

With tighter budgets, less time to get things done, more flexible employment practices and fewer resources, the competitive business environment today is continually looking for high level skills in building and managing businesses. Project Management is a discipline which offers businesses the skills to do just this.

A great course for those who want to become involved in business development and management! You have the opportunity to focus on: Entrepreneurship, Small Business or Advertising and Promotions.

A CAREER IN MARKETING MANAGEMENT CAN BE EXCITING AND REWARDING

Marketing Managers are responsible for all aspects of marketing, not just sales (Sales managers deal only with sales). In smaller businesses, the marketing manager may often also be the sales manager, but in large well structured organisations, the Marketing Manager could find themselves in charge of tasks as diverse as stock control and transport, packaging, general promotions, and after sales service, with one or several sales managers heading sales teams working under their direction.

This course aims to train you on a broad basis to undertake anything from a narrow to very broad scope of activities within the realm of business operations, specific to marketing.

GAIN THE MANAGEMENT SKILL-SET YOU NEED TO MOVE AHEAD IN YOUR CAREER!

Management skills are in high demand, but for a successful career in management, it requires not only knowledge and skill, but an appropriate personality, and a depth of experience which can be drawn upon to make the right decision for each situation that is confronted. This course is different to other management courses, and in being so, provides you with a uniquely attractive skills set.

Do You Stand Out in the Crowd?

Be different! Broaden your knowledge and skills base!  Despite popular belief; a qualification doesn't make a great deal of difference to career success; but the things you lear, and your capacity to think laterally and adapt to change; can make a huge difference.

Research in Germany (and elsewhere) indicates that people who have a broader based tertiary education tend to develop more successful careers. This course provides a unique opportunity to study an unconventional combination of practical disciplines in order to provide a very broad capacity to adapt and apply yourself in a wide variety of industry roles.

LEARN SUPERVISORY SKILLS TO TAKE THE NEXT STEP UP IN YOUR CAREER

Develop skills to supervise staff, whether as foreman or supervisor of a small team; or heading a larger group of work teams. This course is practical and covers techniques and skills commonly covered in text books and certificate courses designed to train supervisors and team leaders in the workplace (eg. the classic problem solving technique).

If you don't know what the problem solving technique is, or struggle to understand and motivate staff you are directly in charge of; you probably need this course.

BEGIN A CAREER IN PROTECTING EMPLOYEES AT WORK!

Imagine the satisfaction you could get from keeping people safe on the job.

Workplace health and safety managers are an important part of a corporation. Companies recognise that accidents in the workplace are not only a legal nightmare, but they disrupt work and can cause significant unnecessary costs. By identifying risks and either avoiding them or preparing contingencies to deal with accidents, a workplace can reduce the frequency of accidents greatly, and minimize any problems when one does occur.

A job in workplace health and safety enables you to protect people from injury and the company from unnecessary costs and disruptions. It offers the opportunity for a rewarding and satisfying career.
