Diploma of Leadership and Management

You are required to successfully complete twelve (12) units in total — six (6) core units and six (6) elective units — for the award of the BSB50420 Diploma of Leadership and Management. Students who only complete some units will be awarded with a Statement of Attainment for units successfully completed.

You are required to attend classes for 20 hours per week for 44 study weeks. In addition to classroom-based learning, you will also need to complete 5 hours of additional unsupervised study per week including general reading and research required for assessments.

Assessments for this course may include, but are not limited to, written questions, projects (which may include case studies), presentations, reports, and role plays/observations. At the beginning of each unit, your trainer and assessor will outline the assessment tasks and advise the task/unit submission date.

Students must maintain a minimum of 80 per cent attendance in each term of the scheduled timetable. Satisfactory course progress and attendance is very important in order to meet the course requirements.

VTI offers a range of support and welfare services to students including one-to-one support from the trainer/assessor, support with personal issues, access to additional learning resources, reasonable adjustment in assessment, social events, and information about external sources of support. VTI will also identify any additional support needs you may have, such as if you have not studied for a while, have English as a second language, or need additional assistance with literacy or numeracy.
