Advanced Diploma of Leadership and Management

Study methods include tutorials, self-paced online learning, workbook completion, as well as direct contact with teachers either for group or individual consultation. Monthly contact is conducted to monitor progress against the Training Plan. Trainers/assessors conduct a minimum of 4 workplace visits per year (not including the initial sign-up visit) including tutorials.

* Workplace based training must be agreed to by the employer, the apprentice/trainee, and the RTO if it is to be successful. The workplace must be OHS compliant at all times and the employer takes full responsibility for this matter.
** Please note that all activities and assessments will be completed/submitted via a learning management system.

Training is undertaken at the workplace. All trainees undertaking workplace based training for this qualification are withdrawn from routine work duties for a minimum of three hours per week, averaged over a four week cycle, for the purpose of undertaking structure training/learning activities (pro-rata for part time). Up to 12 months of time is allocated by OIC to complete the qualification.

Upon enrolment of all learning programs, Orange College’s code of practice states that all candidates for assessment will be offered RPL. This is reiterated in the student handbook and acknowledged in writing.

RPL is an assessment process that assesses an individual’s non-formal and informal learning to determine the extent to which that individual has achieved the required learning outcomes, competency outcomes, or standards for entry to, and/or partial or total completion of, a qualification.

“Recognition of prior learning is an assessment process that involves assessment of an individual’s relevant prior learning (including formal, informal and non-formal learning) to determine the credit outcomes of an individual application for credit.” (Source: AQF)
