Leading a team or managing a workplace successfully requires you to do a lot more than simply boss people around.

If you are currently (or are aspiring to) lead and manage teams, supervise staff and/or drive the direction of a business or service-oriented organisation, this qualification is ideal. The skills sets & interpersonal aptitudes that are the focus of this course are transferable across a spectrum of industries, including manufacturing, service, retail, wholesale and contact centres.

In addition to assuming responsibility for their own performance, individuals at this level are likely to provide leadership, guidance and support to others. They may also have some responsibility for organising and monitoring the output of teams. They may also be required to find solutions to a defined range of predictable and unpredictable challenges and thereafter analyse and evaluate information from a variety of sources.

This course is perfect for businesses and organisations looking to support the continued development of their staff and workforce, allowing promotional opportunities from within. Packages are available for multiple students from the same organisation.

I have recently completed my Diploma of Early Childhood Education and Care through WTS (previously AST) under the guidance of Carley who has been absolutely incredible as a trainer. The online studies made it fit into my busy life schedule, anywhere. I would highly recommend WTS to anyone looking to get into the Early Childhood Education field.

Course participant Rebecca

Thoroughly enjoyed completing my cert 3 and 4 in disability with WTS (previously AST), and am now working in a very rewarding career.

Course Participant Joanne

I wanted a change of careers and WTS (previously AST) was the best experience for me, and the best thing that I could have done. WTS went above and beyond to find a course that suited my needs, the enrolment process was a breeze and I was supported through the process. Starting a course as an adult was very nerve racking, but the trainer I had ensured every single students needs were met and catered his teaching style to suit their needs, a very inclusive organisation and a very safe environment to be in.

Course participant Angie

I would highly recommend WTS (previously AST) and if I decide to do more study I will definitely be using WTS.
