What can you study in Leadership and Governance?
The Postgraduate Certificate in Leadership and Governance (PGCertLdGov) is designed for working professionals seeking to advance their expertise and standing in work, volunteer, discretionary leadership and governance activity through part-time study.
Courses are taught according to an interactive and experiential pedagogy. Delivery is blended. It includes face-to-face workshops in which students apply theoretical content and applied research to specific cases, problems and simulations. In this way, they develop professional and transferable skills.
Varied pedagogical methods are employed to ensure a high level of student engagement. There are numerous opportunities for the participants to develop disciplinary knowledge, think critically, develop skills to work effectively in teams, and demonstrate solution-seeking behaviours. The interactive delivery is led by lecturers and practitioners with current or recent business and industry experience.
Courses are timetabled on a quarterly basis through alternate online and on-campus weeks so as to maximise flexibility and access by way of multi-modal delivery.
