This course is designed to meet the needs of professionals in the social, community and human services sectors who have moved from direct practice into a managerial role, but who do not hold an appropriate undergraduate degree. The program offers an alternative entry to graduate study, with the option to advance via the graduate diploma to the masters if a credit average is achieved. The curriculum includes program planning and evaluation, and management and leadership, and offers a unique focus on exploring the role, function and responsibilities of the human service organisation in rural, regional and urban environments. The course content is designed to allow students to adapt topics and assignments to their own experience and professional context.
