The project management sector comprises project, program and portfolio management roles and is relevant to organisations and industries across the economy. 

Project managers have specific training in initiating, scheduling, and directing teams to achieve specific goals within a project. 

To become a project manager, there are two relevant qualifications you can undertake:

Certificate IV in Project Management Practice:

This qualification is suitable for individuals who aim to undertake roles that apply project management skills and knowledge in a wide variety of contexts.  Job titles for these roles may include contracts officers, project administrators, quality officers and small business operators.  Individuals are usually members of a project team, with no direct responsibility for overall project outcomes. These roles usually support wider project operations. You will learn to use project tools and methodologies to support organisational or business activities.

Diploma of Project Management: 

This qualification is suitable for individuals who aim to undertake roles that apply project management skills and knowledge and assume direct responsibility for overall project outcomes. You will learn to manage projects in a variety of contexts, across a number of industry sectors. You will learn project leadership and management skills and how to achieve project objectives. You will learn sound theoretical knowledge and build a range of specialised, technical and managerial competencies to initiate, plan, execute and evaluate their own work and/or the work of others.
