Studied over the course of two years, this certificate course will provide students with a nationally recognised qualification. Graduates at Certificate III level will have theoretical and practical knowledge and skills for work and/or further university or TAFE learning. Training and assessment will occur in the school environment.

This qualification reflects the varied roles of individuals across different industry sectors who apply a broad range of competencies using some discretion, judgment, and relevant theoretical knowledge. They may provide technical advice and support to a team.

Possible job outcomes include:

• Receptionist
• Administration Officer
