Professional Development Courses

  • Is it time to upgrade yourself through professional development?
  • Is it time to reward yourself for the knowledge you have gained while you have been working?
  • Do you know your own operation but want to know more?

    Smartlink's professional development program builds on your knowledge and is aimed right where it counts - increasing your management capacity and improving returns to your business.

The Program:

  • Has been developed with industry involvement
  • Is established, having run for 5 years
  • Is flexible - through group learning or on-line
  • Is designed for people who want their learning strongly linked to their work without being overrun by academic jargon.
  • Provides internationally recognised, post graduate qualifications through the University of South Australia.

    Participants in the program come from a wide range of industries including food processing, light and heavy engineering, paper, aerospace and automotive manufacture. They may be a manager, a leading hand, co-ordinator or supervisor. Some have trade qualifications in accounting and want to know more about manufacturing, some simply want to broaden their skills and knowledge.

    Our programs includes topics such as:

  • People Management
  • Lean Manufacturing
  • Production Management Systems
  • Cost Management in Manufacturing
  • Family Business
  • Total Quality Management
  • OHS Management & Law 1G

Through Smartlink you can study a single topic of particular interest to you or you may wish to gain the award of Graduate Certificate in Management (Manufacturing) by taking four courses.

If you choose "Global Cases in Manufacturing Management Applications" as one of your four courses,

  • By attending five of our seminars - or others of similar standing - and
  • Reporting on the seminars and how the knowledge you have gained from them has impacted on your business,

You could already be on your way to achieving 25% of the award.
