Advanced Certificate In Applied Management (Instructional & Training Skills) VBS001

Advanced Certificate In Applied Management (Instructional & Training Skills) programs has been developed in response to industry demand and are specifically designed to equip graduates with work-ready skills. Each participant will be trained and assessed in theory and in practical tasks. Real-world exercises are used throughout the program. 

Have you ever needed to train a team?  Has anyone ever asked you to teach a workshop without any notice?  Have you ever had experience with a disorganized trainer or been on a bad course?  Would you like to learn to design effective and efficient, learner-centred, training material?  Would you like to practice teaching in a comfortable environment?

In this program, you will learn the fundamentals of training design and development and how these principles can be applied to instructing and facilitating courses, workshops and seminars.  You will learn some of the traditional and modern techniques to design, develop, instruct and evaluate training. Through group interaction, you will also share your experiences and learn from each other.  Emphasis in this program is on developing practical instructional skills using a learner-centred approach.

There are three parts to this course:

1. Foundation Modules (4)

though generic in their delivery, are designed to offer lots of opportunity to relate set tasks and assignments to the education context.

Alternative 3.

Credits can be achieved by completing standard modules Workplace Project I, II and/or III
