Make a strategic move in defence
Following significant federal investment, the South Australian defence industry is set to boom. Huge submarine construction and shipbuilding programs are in train. Workforces are growing. Demand for leadership skills rises by the day.
Whether you’re a defence technician keen to step up, or an outside professional looking to step in, our Professional Certificate in Defence Industry Leadership will prepare you to make your move.
What will you do?
Developed in consultation with the Defence Teaming Centre, this intensive program is delivered over ten months across a series of executive-style intensive sessions. Through contemporary blended and hands-on experiential learning, you will:
- deeply understand complexity in the defence industry
- gain proficiency in self-leadership, self-awareness and change management
- learn to effectively manage multi-party collaboration
- become comfortable applying adaptive leadership skills in challenging environments
- understand networks in a defence industry context
- enhance your academic literacy and research skills.
You’ll benefit from frequent industry visits; presentations from senior defence specialists; advanced simulation and guided experimentation exercises; and an immersive retreat in a key defence facility.
Where could it take you?
You could find yourself guiding critical Future Submarine system integration. You might help manage upgrades to the world-leading JORN over-the-horizon radar network. Perhaps you’ll lead a Triton unmanned aircraft sustainment team.
You could even springboard into further study—the Professional Certificate carries credit into our prestigious MBA.
