Upon completion of 18 units a student may choose to exit with Graduate Certificate in Health Administration or the Graduate Certificate in Aged Care Administration, subject to meeting the program of study for that award.

1. This Program of Study serves as a suggested study plan. When core topics are offered in both halves of the year, students may enrol in these topics in either half of the year as long as requisites are met.
2. The introductory core topics HACM9100, HACM9101 and HACM9102 should normally be completed prior to other core and option topics.

• Normally hold a degree or equivalent qualification from an approved tertiary institution and have not less than two years professional experience in the health or aged care sector following completion of the degree or equivalent qualification

OR
