Professional studies
Many professionals want a university-level education that will enhance their career or even allow them to change direction. But traditional part-time studies don’t meet the unique needs relevant to the work they do or they simply don’t have the time.
Professional Studies is a modern way of opening up university learning and awards for busy professionals. Simply stated, Professional Studies are university programs that are personalised to promote careers and benefit organisations 'through work, in work, for work, at work'.
Professional Studies recognises the prior expertise and experience of professionals gained during their career. The programs also recognise that modern day work is not limited to a single discipline or course but is often very diverse needing a broad range of skills to be relevant. Published research recognises that the Professional Studies’ work-based learning approach has high quality and authentic learning outcomes that positively impact career development. Not only does the program recognise that work has become more complex in the diversity of knowledge and skills required, but also develops higher order skills that are increasingly common in all advanced careers.
