The Graduate Certificate in Industrial and Employee Relations is designed to
meet the needs of practitioners in industrial and employee relations and of
human resources managers who wish to undertake formal study and gain a
qualification in this field. In addition, the course aims to provide an avenue
for managers and professional people who seek to make the transition to
employment in the field of industrial and employee relations.
The course focuses on the workplace aspects of industrial and employee
relations and links industrial relations and employee management practices with
the broader issues of economic policy, wages and labour policy, efficiency and
productivity. This necessitates detailed coverage of the institutional and
legal framework of Australian industrial and employee relations.
Applicants require a pass degree or an equivalent qualification from a
recognised tertiary institution. Applicants without a first degree who have a
minimum of six years appropriate employment experience should refer to the
section on executive certificates. Candidates may be eligible for a maximum of
two credit exemptions for subjects considered to be equivalent to particular
subjects in the course of study. Refer to the course director for further
details.
This is a fee-paying course. Candidates should
consult the Department of Management as to the 2001 course fee. Course fees are set
and reviewed annually and are therefore subject to change.
Students who successfully complete the Graduate Certificate in Industrial and
Employee Relations may apply for admission to the Graduate Diploma in
Industrial and Employee Relations.
The
course consists of two core subjects and two elective subjects.
(a) Core subjects
(b) Elective subjects
The two elective subjects are to be chosen from the list set out in the details
for the Master of Industrial and Employee Relations. Students may also select
subjects from those offered by the Department of Management with the approval
of the course coordinator.
